Dear Friends There is a very simple method to turn off the Monitor.
I am using a Think Pad from IBM, it has a shortcut keystroke as "Function with F7". Its a toggle key, means to turn off or on use the same. Further in control panel we have a option called "Power Option". There are many tabs in which one can set as per settings required, as turn the monitor after so & so minutes if on battery or on power, or turn off the monitor when the lid is closed etc. Normally in this dialogue box each setting has both the options as whether on battery or on power. According to my knowledge, each brand has this options in the power option dialogue box, it just a matter of exploring the same. Hope this resolves the matter up to your satisfaction.
