Power down monitor when in Screensaver

Hi,

Does anyone know if it's possible to have Sage use the automatic monitor power-down feature of Windows, if it's in the Sage screensaver for longer than a certain time?

I'm using Sage on an HTPC hooked up to a plasma by VGA, and unfortunately it sometimes gets left running when someone forgets to shut it all off. I'd like to have it so that if the Sage screensaver comes up, then 5 or 10 mins later the PC will power down the monitor (the plasma supports this).

I've tried turning on the power management stuff on windows, but this turns off the monitor after the preset time, even if you are actually viewing a TV program.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Regards,
Ben
