Message: [QUOTE="DirtyDawg, post: 13571017"] Hi SC Tom, thanks for the reply. If I use the keyboard button it acts the same as if it's going into sleep mode, but it doesn't really. Monitor goes off, but you can still hear and see that the system is still up and running - you can still hear the blower going, the hard drive light is still active periodically, and the power light is NOT blinking as it would do if it were in sleep mode. This same thing happens when I select "Sleep" from the "Start Menu" display AND try to use the "Power" button. The ONLY way I can get them to sleep is as described before setting "Automatic" sleep to 5 mins or less and of course making sure all the necessary stuff in "Advanced Power" settings is set up right...such as making sure the hard drive is set to power down at least 1 min prior to sleep...etc...etc. [/QUOTE]
