Hmm, having looked at that thread, maybe I should install the drivers for the newer HP monitors at my work where I experience this problem. As I said, I don't have this problem with the older LG monitors at home (for which I do have drivers installed).
So in my case it's definitely not about whether it's DisplayPort or VGA because I use the same connectors in both places. The only difference is the brand and age of the monitors and the fact that I haven't installed the drivers for the monitors at work. Otherwise it's the same laptop with the same Win 7, 64-bit, same hardware, same everything.

I am having a problem on my Win7 machine that I never had on my XP machine.
I have 4 monitors. Overnight the monitors (not the computer) go to sleep.
When they wake up, some of the windows that were open on the desktop jump/move around to different monitors and resize.
It's really quite annoying.
Windows 7, Nvidia modern graphics cards with up to date drivers.
Any ideas how I might stop this from happening? Short of turning off the monitor sleep power options?

i have now six monitors as commented in one of our posts.
I was talking with an Asus technician until boring.
The thing seems to be a limit in the operating system or something like that.
I have the problem when the pc goes into suspend state.
I am using the utility don't sleep.
The "thing" is no finished yet. I download the utility Sleeper because the Asus Technician told me about the diffente ways or modes to suspend.
This was a month ago. Now I usually don't suspend the pc for not "lose" any monitor. I can lose 2, 4 or the 6 and need to reinitiate after any hybernation/suspension.
Contro:
I don't know.
Perhaps an answer may be change the options for sleeping.
Sleeper utility may help. Running to link...

Contro:
I will answer in a few days to Asus because they put me two links (one with the microsoft list of suspended and hybernations states s0 to s5) (supposing i am a clever man) with the passmark link to test the possibilities.
I have done nothing until the moment.
