Vista and monitor shut off

I set the power savings to "power save in vista" and i set the monitor to shut off after 15 mins. It never actually shuts off though even after an hour. I have vista x64 bit. Is there a solution?

Thanks

Oh reading the other post kind of makes sense. The screen saver i was using was 3d Text. Guess the rendering on screen doesn't make the screen shut off. Im going to try with another screen saver when i get to my computer and let you know if it shut off.
