I installed GX on a pc with a standard pc monitor. After a few moments of inactivity windows turns off the monitor (must be a power saving feature), when i move the mouse the monitor comes back on BUT i can't use the mouse (or see the mouse cursor anywhere) and the cursor keys which i was using to navigate the menu don't work. Now i don't remember mapping anything but a gamepad but the mouse and cursor keys were definitely working before the monitor was powered down by windows. Any ideas ?

Does the same thing happen without windows running?

Sorry Brian, but i don't understand what you mean. GX is running in full screen mode. Do you mean if i somehow disable windows from turning the monitor off ?

I mean if you dont run gameex and your pc goes into standby mode... When it comes out does your mouse still work.

I just want to see if its a powermanagment issue.

OOPS I meant gameex not windows.... Silly me

Maybe even though gameex is visible it might not have focus. When is comes out of power saver use alt-tab to select gameex, and see if that fixes the inputs. It is not a solution, but it might explain it.
