Hi All
I need to disable suspend mode (stand by) in windows XP. Here are the requirements:

1. The Standby/Hibernate has to be grayed out in task manager.
2. The Standby has to be grayed out in the logoff screen
3. The standby should not occur when the standby button is pressed on the keyboard
4. THIS CANNOT BE A BIOS change!, since i have to do it on various different PCs

Can someone please help?
Thanks

If this is Windows Pro, then set policies with the Group Policy Editor
(gpedit.msc). Look at the Administrative templates.

Nope this wont do it, since the Group Policy Editor does not have an
entry related to "disable hibernate/suspend" Luckily I am a programmer
so I solved the problem programmatically using WM_POWERBROADCAST
message in my code.
