tennesseeme Posted January 8, 2006 CID Share Posted January 8, 2006 go into your power managment options, rightclick desktop, properties, screensaver tab, hit power, hibernate, enable hibernate, also, turn power scheme to always on first, this will allow stanby hibernate to be an option. also set your machine to "always on" under schemes.

Swimmer Posted January 21, 2006 CID Share Posted January 21, 2006 all of your drivers have to support power management.. so.. make sure that they are all up todate! Also make sure that your graphics drivers are uptodate! that is the number 1 cause that computer will not enter standby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
