Turned off screen by time out stays turned off

Hi there,

My following question concerns this configuration: T60 2007-FRG(E), 14" SXGA+ panel with X1400 GPU, 2GB of RAM, XP_Pro SP2

did anybody experience the same: when the screen backlight turned to off after a while *sometimes* I'm not able to wake it up by pressing keys or moving cursor. The only way to bring it to life is to shut down the lid for stdby and wake the T60 up from stdby. Then the backlight will turn on as normal. Is anybody here having the same odd behaviour.
My system is a WinXP Pro SP2 with all necess. updates installed. Even the ATI/Lenovo display driver is the latest one. And again: it happens sometimes and not always - means it's hard to reproduce it. Thank You in advance for any inputs.

Brgds, Torsten.

Yes I have the same issue. Which I've worked around by disabling all screen shut off timers.

I've seen that my problem corresponds to that one.

Either we can append it to the other one or close/delete this thread, please.

Brgds, Torsten
