Just looked at the manual for this monitor and blanked with an amber
led gives the maximum power saving that you can get without switching
it off so I'd suggest just go to blanked screen. I'm assuming that the
monitor led goes amber when the screen goes blank.
If the led isn't going amber have a look at the control panel for the
graphics chip and see if there are any options to set no video and no
sync for power off on the monitor. It may be that it's just turning off
video but not v and h sync. Look around in Control Panel both Display
and the screen/display section in device manager. Sometimes you can
adjust what the driver does.
