I`m awaiting delivery of an LCD TV which I will connect to my PC via DVI
cable. I wonder do the Windows power options works exactly the same for
an LCD TV as they do for a monitor - ie if set to always on the LCD TV
goes into standby - or can it not control an LCD TV the same way -
Thanks.

It's not about whether or not your PC can control the LCD TV, it's about
whether or not your LCD TV will go into (lower-power) standby mode without
signal. The PC does not actually control the monitor when Windows goes
into power-save mode, it just cut off the signal to the monitor.

Hope this help.


While you are waiting for your TV, why not download the user manual for it,
and see if there is a menu option for going into standby mode if there is no
signal. Look in the section that has to do with computer use first.
