| | reawakening PC My desktop Dell goes into a quiesed mode if left idle for an hour or more. I don't know whether this is called sleep mode or hibernation. I can usually bring it back to life by pressing the space bar or other keys. But about a third of the time I get no response when I press the keys. The power light light is on on the processor, and the monitor shows the amber light, but I am forced to do a cold restart. Is there anything I can do to get around this? -- Johan |
