Laptop doesn't sleep on lid close, but does when I re-open the lid

Hi,

I wonder if anyone can help. I have a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li2727 which I've had for just over a year. It's a great laptop, but recently I've had something weird start happening. Whenever I close the lid the laptop doesn't go into sleep mode anymore. However, when I re-open the lid it does go to sleep. If I don't notice this or forget to re-open the lid the laptop gets really hot, and I'm worried that this may cause problems in the future.

Additionally, the laptop also seems to sometimes randomly wake while the lid is shut. I only use it wirelessly, and have checked that none of the power saving options have been changed. I don't know if this was triggered by an update or not, as I hadn't used the laptop for a few months so there were a lot of updates to install once I started to use it again.

My setup is: Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li2727, Vista Home Premium 32bit SP2

If it was just not going into sleep when closing the lid I'd expect it to be a broken switch, but it's the fact that it then sleeps when I open the lid that has me stumped.

Thanks in advance, hope someone can help me fix this!
