Does that include the latest service pack for XP? See this article: "Computer does not enter standby mode if Power Options profile is set to standby after 45 or more minutes" http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;310601 And: "The Computer Cannot Enter Standby or Hibernate If a Direct3D-Based Screen Saver Is Running" http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;306676 In addition, several graphics cards and peripherals may prevent your system from entering standby.

You could try writing to their support forum and ask if other users have a similar problem with Windows Standby. http://forum.packardbell.com/en/viewforum.php?f=4
