Hi,
Can someone help me out. I usual turn my monitor off when I go to bed, but when I wake up and switch it back on I get "no signal" and from my XF240H monitor and the PC from what I can tell is still running, I've tried unplugging the DP and then plugging it back in with no success. The only thing that works is to press the reset button to reboot the system and that fixes it. Thanks

Plus, monitor still switches on after turning it off for a few minutes 

Monitor XF240H
Connection: Display Port 144hz

Current GPU: Geforce RTX 2080 Ti latest drivers

What the current setting are
Power setting are set to Never sleep and to never turn of the screen.
My GPU handles the Colour settings
Let windows update Install 20/10/2015 XF240H  Drivers 

On the monitor
DDC/CI is On
Quick Start Mode is On

    @mjaafar click on window icon then search cmd and open as administrator you need to type two commands one by one

    1st command- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    When above command finished 

    Type 2nd command- sfc /scannow 
    Then restart your system then check your problem solved or not

    Click on yes if problem solved

    Update

    After implementing your suggestion as well as rolling back the GPU driver using the "DDU" software to the 442.74 Driver,
    I'm happy to say that there's no repeat of problem.

    But, I would still like to test for the next couple of days, just in case.

    Thank you for the reply, I have done as suggested will let you know if it has solved the issue or not.

    I should make you aware, that when I restarted my system, as not shutting it down and booting it up again. once it had gone through the post process, I got a no signal, and pressing the reset button, did not solve it actually nothing would be on display.
    I was only able to get everything after doing a hard reset, holding the button for 8 secs forcing it to shutdown and booting it up again, thankfully, there doesn't seem to be a re-occurrence of it.

    Thanks again

    I think I might have narrowed down when this started happening
    I believe it must be when I had the Nvidia control panel take control of all colour settings. it's only thing that I did after installing the monitor which would have been on March 27th, and I don't recall it it doing anything like this when I update the monitor driver.

    I'll try the next update when it comes out, once it goes past 446.xx or even 447.xx
