Can't wake monitor after going to sleep

Cygnus — Thu, 05 Jan 2023 03:19:23 GMT

Hi I recently purchased an Intel Arc A770 and have been enjoying the experience so far, however there is one issue that bugs me and actually affects my workflow. When my monitors go to sleep the graphics card is unable to wake up my monitor connected via HDMI, the power light on the monitor will switch from 'standby' to 'active' while my other two monitors flash as the windows are re-arranged. Along with this the Intel Arc Control panel will pop up with notifications that something has changed and it will do this ad nauseum until I hold down the power button on the HDMI connected monitor to power it off and then power it back on, only then will things start working.

This has been an issue with the three different set of drivers that I've tested, is there any fix for this?

Thank you!

Software

OS Version: 21H2

OS Edition: Windows 10 Pro

Intel Arc Control: 1.61.4387.4

Driver Version: 31.0.101.4032

Hardware

Intel ARC A770 LE 16GB

Intel Core i7 8700k

ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-I Gaming (Re-Bar Enabled)

G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (X.M.P. Enabled)

Hello Andres,

Thank you so much for reaching back out! Attached is the log called: SSU_Logs_011323.txt

In the attached video file, VideoError.mp4 , I performed the following steps:

Set the power and sleep settings to turn the screens off after 1 minute
Waited for this time to elapse and then the system starts dinging to alert a change in hardware detection (Sound came through kind of quiet but you can hear it if you turn up the volume)
I then moved the mouse to wake the monitors, here you can see it trying to wake the HDMI connected screen but it cannot
Only when I power off the HDMI monitor on the left and power it back on does the graphics card sort this issue out

Like I said this is a new issue since getting the Intel Arc A770 and maybe it is something specific to HDMI as the other two monitors are connected via DisplayPort and don't exhibit the same issues.

Please let me know if you need any more info.

Thank you!

Hello Andres,

Thank you for the troubleshooting steps but I'm still experiencing the issues after following your instructions. I looked for a driver listing on the download page but it seems the earlier drivers are no longer present, so these are the drivers I know of plus whichever one was available around 12/8:

31.0.101.4032
31.0.101.3975
31.0.101.3959

Thank you!

I have the same symptoms as you. Please provide a bug patch from Intel as soon as possible. Windows sleep mode does not apply to intel Arc graphiccard and cannot be released from sleep mode with any keys, so I am restarting Windows by forcefully shutting down.

Hello Cygnus,

Thank you for all the information and feedback provided.

We still working on the investigation, for further research answer the following questions:

Are you using a display adapter or docking station? If so what is the make and model?
What is the make and model of the three monitors?

Hi Andres and apologies for the delay.

There are no docking stations or adapters in play, the closest I have is a DisplayPort to DVI cable otherwise the other two are connected via HDMI and DisplayPort cables.

HP 2311x -- Connected via HDMI (The one that won't wake up)

Acer Nitro VG271U -- Connected via DisplayPort

ViewSonic VX2250 -- Connected via DisplayPort to DVI cable

Thank you!

I'd like to know how long this issue will take to resolve and is this a driver issue or hardware.

Re: Re:Can't wake monitor after going to sleep

VilleH — Wed, 01 Feb 2023 14:46:58 GMT

Quickly tested and with the new .4091 driver the problem seems to be solved.

Best regards,

Hello Andres,

Thank you for reaching out and for taking the time to respond to us all! I tried to install the latest driver but sadly I'm still experiencing the same issue, the new Control interface is great however! I did generate a report using the Intel Graphics Command Center, please let me know if you need anything else.
