Does any one know a quick way to call the Monitor turn-off feature of windows power saving?

A DllCall or COM call will work. Hell, I'd settle for an .exe command line switch.

TIA!!!

I think I've seen a DllCall mentioned before on the forum, but I don't remember.

You can use command line util wizmo monoff

THNX for that, but there is no command to turn the monitor back on. :)

I tried searching to forum for an hour or so, and couldn't find any thing. Any key words you can offer?

Ah long time never post.

Is this what you need?

$WM_SYSCOMMAND = 274
$SC_MONITORPOWER = 61808

Opt('WinTitleMatchMode', 4)
$hwnd = WinGetHandle('classname=Progman')
DllCall('user32.dll', 'int', 'SendMessage', 'hwnd', $hwnd, 'int', $WM_SYSCOMMAND, 'int', $SC_MONITORPOWER, 'int', 2)

Do anything to your kb/mouse to turn on the monitor. :)
