Hi there,

 

I installed a PCIE wifi adaptor yesterday, and now every time i wake my computer from sleep, there's no video output but all the lights/fans etc turn on as normal.

 

  • If I hold the power button and force a restart, the video displays as normal.
  • If i let it sit on the black screen, after about 30 seconds it automatically restarts and video displays as normal.

My pc woke from sleep with no problems prior to installing the adaptor.

 

I'm running windows 10 and connecting via displayport.

 

Is there a setting i need to change? Any suggestions on how to fix this please?

 

Thanks
