Dear everyone,

I've built a system with the following specs and installed 10.10.5 on it which is running splendid:

GA-X99-UD3
5820K
GTX 980 4GB
32GB Crucial CT4K8G4DFD8213
Samsung EVO 750 500GB
4TB HDD

The problem is that the screen goes black after a while in idle and then becomes unresponsive, needing a reset. All power management options are disabled, so the screen, HDD, or system should not sleep/hibernate.

The problem only occurs when not working with the system, in idle mode.

I'm running the latest Chimera.

This is all the information I can currently supply, because I'm not at the system. I expect to be able to deliver more information tomorrow, if requested.

Maybe someone can shed light on this problem already?


Many thanks!

Al
