• Power saving for only some monitors?

    From Commander Kinsey@CK1@nospam.com to alt.comp.os.windows-10,alt.computer workshop on Wed May 19 12:43:41 2021
    I have more than one monitor connected to a Windows 10 machine. I want to save power. But one screen is used to display security cameras so I want it to stay on. Is there any way (some 3rd party program if necessary) to turn off all but one monitor at the power saving timeout?

    Could you just take the computer out of that circuit, and connect the
    cameras (or the recorder or whatever you're using to combine them)
    direct to that monitor?

    No sense being pessimistic. It wouldn't work anyway.
