monitor going to standby whilst playing

[Chrysalis]

Have an annoying problem recently, when playing ff7 my monitor goes into standby and I have to move the mouse to get it back out of standby.

I am playing with a usb gamepad and I am guessing for some reason my pc isnt recognising its activity as use.  But no idea why.

Just change the settings in your power options so the monitor won't turn off.
