Tried that and it didn't seem to help.
ACPI in bios was set at S1 (POS) and the pc sort of hibernated but the fan
and hard drive were still spinning. I set it to S3 (STR) and then it really
hibernated - the fan and hd turned off and the power led flashed
continually. The keys and mouse did nothing as did the power-on button.
The reset button actually rebooted and recovered from hibernate with my
applications still running.
Not sure if this is how it is supposed to work but I wish the keyboard or
mouse movement would have the same effect.
