Weird issue here -
I have set up a system with a 7870 (stock clocks) that has an LCD computer monitor hooked up by DVI and an LCD HDTV hooked up by HDMI. Everything works okay except that I cannot get the screen saver to work and the power saving option of turning off screen doesn't work either.
Running Catalyst 13.1 (was the latest available when set it up).
I have a feeling this is a result of having two monitors plugged in at once but not sure how to remedy. Any suggestions to try?
Thanks!
EDIT: As a note, the screen saver preview works just fine. However, setting the screen saver to come on after 1 minute and leaving it idle, nothing happens and the screen stays on well past the point of the setting to turn off the screen (10 minutes).
