Can't use Stand By

Dell recently worked on my Inspiron laptop, and I no longer have the Stand By option when I shut down the system. The Stand By icon is darkened and nonfunctional, so I have to leave the computer on all day or turn it off completely.

Dell has no ideas short of reloading Windows XP, but I was hoping for a less drastic remedy. Thanks.
 
Visit the Dell support website, search for the latest Video Adapter drivers
for your specific Dell notebook and video adapter, download and install.

This happened to me when I uninstalled a troublesome video drivers update. I
was then using Windows standard drivers. I reinstalled the NVIDIA drivers
and Standby returned.
