Serious sleep and hibernation problems

[~^_^~]

My system configurations are:

Core2Duo (a little bit overclocked)
ASUS P5B (up-to-date BIOS. S3 enabled. On-board LAN enabled)
XFX 7600GT (w/ Vista default driver, not installed nVidia's one)
MS Ergonomics 4000 keyboard / MS intelli optical mouse (USB)
Vista Business 32-bit version.

And, my problem is when I try to make my computer into hibernation,
Vista does not turn off my computer entirely. After saving data to
RAM, my computer just resumes and comes back again. It's also in sleep
mode. Whenever I put my computer in sleep state, it never fall into
sleep and wakes up immediately.

Someone says that turn off the options in LAN card settings. I've
tried, but if failed. I also tried to disable my LAN card and pull LAN
cable, but it also failed. Furthermore, tweaked BIOS settings,
keyboard/mouse driver updates, and so on. All strugglings are in vain.

Is there anyone who suffers this problem? Please help me out.

Thanks

It's very common. Search Google.

I think that Asus boards might be particularly bad in this respect. I have
a P5W DH Deluxe, and I cannot use Sleep or Hibernate without massive
problems.

I hope MS can sort this crap out as soon as possible.

I have P5B-E/NVidia 7800GT and had sleep problems too. Last night, I
finally able to make it sleep and resume without problems. Here's what I
did:
1. Update to the latest Nvidia 100.65 drivers.
2. Disable VGA Post on resume in BIOS.
3. In the device manager, under USB Root Hub's Power Management tab,
enabled 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power'.
4. In the NIC's Advanced Option, changed the Wake-On-LAN settings to 'Magic
Packet'.

My P5B-E has a jumper to supply 5VSB to keyboard when in standby. By
default, this is disable so I changed the jumper.
