Monitor issue

I think u start ET and when u vid_restart or exit the game, your monitor turns off, PC remains working fine. Tried turning monitor on/off, cables.
uve been using same cfg for months and this problem started last week, right after u had to do windows repair due some sketchy stuff on PC.
Only thing that works is restarting from button. Although monitor doesn't turn off everytime, random.

u haven't seen this issue in other games. Any ideas?

Monitor is Samsung S19C150

try doing same things without ur config /cvar_restart if it works it comes from ur cfg

Check other r_displayrefresh value

Had the same problem,fixed it by reinstalling windows :D

maybe a conflicting cvar_backup in etpro folder or in your profile folder that's giving you a different r_mode or displayrefresh that your monitor can't use.
