Monitor goes into sleep mode

I am currently running InDesign CS6 with Windows 10. After a short time editing documents, the monitor either goes black or goes into sleep mode. I have a VGA monitor which has an HDMI adapter from the CPU. Once this starts happening, it is impossible to use InDesign again until I have rebooted the machine. I can then work for a few minutes before the problem starts again. I recently installed updates. - Any clues? Thanks

    It's hardly related to InDesign.

    Check your system settings:

    Thanks - I hadn't considered it to be a sleep mode issue as it only happens in InDesign and flickers on and off while I am in the middle of working. I'll give that a try.

    AFAIK, CS6 is not officially supported under Windows 10. That said, it should work, most users report no problems.

    However, you might (or might not) encounter some issues.
