Thanks for answering. Unfortunately it is a shareware that I am writing, so I have no clue of end users monitor drivers nor their interfaces. I need a generic way of getting the monitor on/off status.
The link I provided in my first post seem to lead to a generic solution for this problem in .Net 3.0, I need one in .Net 2.0 or unmanaged though. Is it really no solution for this?
