| Vista Ultimate 64 | Re: Vista 64 sleep mode Joe, My sleep mode is still not working. I have followed, as required, all the 10 steps in the Vista Forums-Power Options and Sleep Mode Problems. Now, after clicking on the Sleep in the Start menu the computer immediately returns into the Windows main screen. I have to admit I have spent a lot of time trying on my own to resolve the problem. Now, I need to ask you for additional directions how to resolve it. Below, I am attaching the output from the powercfg commands I have run: Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6001] Copyright (c) 2006 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. C:\Users\janbog>powercfg -list Existing Power Schemes (* Active) Power Scheme GUID: 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e (Balanced) Power Scheme GUID: 7bd666c6-7cd9-4fb5-85fc-c48e755184d0 (My Custom Plan 1) * Power Scheme GUID: 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c (High performance) Power Scheme GUID: a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a (Power saver) C:\Users\janbog>powercfg -devicequery wake_armed C:\Users\janbog> C:\Users\janbog>powercfg -a The following sleep states are available on this system: Standby ( S1 S3 ) Hiber nate Hybrid Sleep The following sleep states are not available on this system: Standby (S2) The system firmware does not support this standby state. Below, I am attaching a short resume of the ten steps: Step 1 No wireless keyboard or mouse Step 2 All the settings in accordance with the Step 2 directions. Sleep mode on. Hibernate off. Display off= Hard disk off= 5 min, Computer off =10 min. Step 3 BIOS set as above. Step 4 No devices configured to wake up the system. Step 5 No devices configured to wake up the system. Step 6 No Screen Saver Step 7 The Sleep Mode did not work after I unchecked the Load Startup items. Step 8 No programs allowed to Wake-p the computer Step 9 Windows Sidebar off Ste 10 The Sleep mode never worked so I only ran as administrator the command: powercfg –h on. Jan Stockholm |

Jan Stockholm One of the fixes for my system was to change settings in the BIOS. Consult your system documentation on making changes to your BIOS. There may be a setting in there, something to the effect of "wake on lan". If there is, disable it, save, and restart your PC. Warning: Making changes to your BIOS if not done correctly and render a computer useless, use caution when accessing and/or changing BIOS settings. I hope this helps. |
