About this tag
The tag insomnia on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about sleep-related issues in Windows, including computers waking unexpectedly from sleep mode, as well as user concerns about screen brightness affecting sleep. One thread describes a computer that auto-wakes shortly after being put to sleep, possibly due to power events like a printer startup. Another thread explores using dark Aero themes to reduce eye strain and help with insomnia, noting limitations in Windows for combining dark themes with slideshow backgrounds. A separate thread mentions insomnia in the context of a news article about mental health, but the primary focus is on Windows sleep behavior and display settings.

    I've read how the brightness of LCD displays, directly in the eyes, contributes to insomnia. So I want to switch to a dark aero theme. I'm disappointed that the only available dark themes are "high contrast." I can't find any aero themes that are dark, but also have a background slide-show...
