I have my monitor to never go to sleep.
Why does EvE keep putting up a black screen?
Does this make it easier for CCP devs to gank players?
Seriously, why are you putting my screen to sleep?
And how do I shut this off?
Well, I’m not at liberty to say…
Does it tell you when the screen goes to sleep also?
Well, I mean, I like to stay notified, if that’s what you are asking…
How do you turn this off?
This is the most annoying game feature I have ever witnessed.
Insufficient data for a proper reply.
Have you tried adjusting your monitor?
I bet his display is connected to the bathroom light switch.
The first step in diagnosing your technical issue is to ensure the monitor is plugged in. Please find the electric cord, unplug the monitor if it is plugged in, and then reinsert the plug. Next we will need to restart your internet router.
Give the back of the monitor a good hard smack. That should fix it. If not, next time it goes black, hit Alt-F4.
It’s not the monitor…it’s Eve.
Are you sure it’s not your graphics card?
This is a known bug - caused by having too much porn on your computer.
I disagree, it sounds instead rather like your GFX fluid is running low - ensure that stays topped up, otherwise the GPU begins to overheat and degrade in performance.
Except it’s not…which is why you haven’t gotten a serious answer. I’m the killjoy that’s telling you the problem is on your end. Go change your settings in your computer so that the monitor doesn’t go to sleep so quickly, or update your graphics card or something. If it was Eve, everyone would be having the same problem…but we’re not.
Dude, I play on a laptop and even my monitor never goes to sleep.
Sounds like a performance issue.
This is the best thread of useful replies to a useless opening post.
You can refill the GFX fluid either through the USB port, or by placing the entire computer in a bathtub full of soapy water.
Buy better equipment.
If you don’t go afk you won’t have this problem, problem solved.
