Standby/Resume Problem - Winlogon Vs MinLogon

S

Schockal

Hi There,

I had a post earlier about standby/resume functionality on XPE. I tested
this feature on XP Pro and it works fine. I couldn't make it work on XP
Embedded. I have all the ACPI components, I am using Winlogon. Are there any
other components I am missing ?. Why is it working on XP Pro and not on XPE
?.

I select Standby using the Start Menu (Turn Off Computer/Standby), the
system is getting into Standby mode without any problem, the issue is waking
up. It won't wake up and I had to restart the machine.

Any ideas why this is happening ?

Thanks
SC


KM,

I am having problems with Windows XP Embedded standby mode. Win XP Pro is
working fine. I have included all the necessary ACPI components. I am using
Winlogon. Do you know what I may be missing ?. XP Embedded worked just once
and it stopped working. XP Pro is fine all the time.

thanks

1. Do you have the video driver for your video card in the image?
2. Did you check to enable Hibernation in the ACPI computer component?

HI Sean,

Thanks for your response. I am not sure about #1. I am using a feature pack
from Kontron (ETX-PM Kontron SBC) for XP Embedded. It has all the necessary
components. So I believe the video driver is part of the package I got. I am
pretty sure that hibernation is not enabled, hibernation and standby ?. I
thought they were different. Let me enable it tomorrow and give it a try.

If you are not sure about the video, looking in Device Manager and see what
display adapter driver is loaded. If is is the standard VGA, then incorrect
driver is loaded.

Sean,

I checked it, Intel 82XXX something adapter is loaded. So I got the right
adapter, surprisingly it worked once, it went to standby and when I hit the
standby key again to wake up, it came back and restarted automatically. Do
you know why this is happening ?.

thanks

Sean,

Is there any way I could set the standby state (S1 or S3 or S1/S3) in Target
Designer ?.

Thanks

Not really, what is the Computer Component that is being used? Is it
Advanced Computer and Power Management interface. or one of the other
possible 6?

Sean,

I use ACPI. I have two units one running XP Pro, the other XPE. I did a
quick Device Manager comparison. XPE was missing some components such as
Batteries (Microsoft AC Adapter, Microsoft System Management BIOS Driver). I
have added these two components and going to test now. Do you know why the
system management BIOS driver was missing in the first place ?. I thought
Target Designer is smart enough to pull it in but I had to add it manually.

Thanks
SC
