Screen Dimming on a Nomad and not "waking" back up

i'm running 3.2.3.19 on a newer PC laptop running windows 11 22H2 22621.2861. i have the laptop set to never go to sleep or dim its screen. after a period of time the screen dims and i cant get it to "wake" back up. i have to hard shut down the computer and restart.
i have sACNView running on a separate laptop and it appears that the EOS PC is still outputting after the screen dims. i also have a Swisson DMX tester plugged in to a Gadget and it is receiving DMX info as well. so it appears that EOS is still running in the background but the screen wont turn back on. i recreated this scenario on a brand new laptop, left EOS running over night and that computer locked up as well, but this time wont restart and appears to be bricked.
I'm running the same version of EOS on a different PC console running windows 10 with no problems ever. this is my first Nomad on a Windows 11 machine.
Anyone experience this?? i'm stumped.
