XP SP2 keeps my computer to go into standby mode

[Matthieu Gaillet]

Hi everybody


Just wanted to know if someone else has had problems with SP2 and standby
mode. I've got a laptop : ACER Travelmate 6000 series (centrino 1.7, 512Mb,
82852 chipset).
The symptoms :

the display goes off
the dvd spins and does something
the pc does not go to sleep
sometimes (hours later) I find my pc with the dvd spinning at full speed !?

----

if I move the mouse :

the display immediately goes on, showing the logon screen.
I can logon normally but there is no sound anymore.

I simply removed SP2 -> Everything fine.

Any comments ?

Thanks

Matt

It's a long shot but worth the try. if you go into the Device Manager and
open to your 'Controllers', mine is IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. Right-click
on your 'Primary' Controller > Properties > Driver > click update Driver.
Follow directions and then reboot. Good Luck.

Unfortunately I removed SP2 and does have the time to do that. But I'll try
one day... Maybe when Micro$oft will issue SP2 "final edition" because I
feel that we are not further than a Beta version... :-(

I`be been have the same issue since I installed SP2. By desktop will no
longer go into sleep mode by itself. I haven`t had time to look into it yet
but it seems to be an issue with SP2.

Check with the laptop maker for updated drivers for SP2. Laptops are
quite proprietary.
