Vista sleep problem

My laptop has Vista premium home, the screen saver goes on after the
determined time then off but the hard drive never goes to sleep. If I close
it manually, it works. This problem is new as it was working fine just 2
weeks ago.

Hi LucM70,

Make sure that your hard drive is set to turn off at least one minute before the computer is set to go into sleep mode. See STEP TWO in this tutorial for how if needed.
