| | Backup in sleep mode? I used to have no problems getting Vista to backup and do other maintenance at night while in the sleep mode. After my Vista reinstall I get error messages from the backup program (couldn't run) and anti-virus program (can't download updates), and a few others. I assume there is a setting that I do not have right. Help please. Thanks in advance... Bob |
