System doesn't Standby....Help me..

9 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/system-doesnt-standby-help-me.47855/

Usually when I used to Standy the Computer by selecting it from the Shutdown Menu, the fans(CPU and SMPS) would shutoff and the system would come to a low power state with the Power Led blinking. Pressing the Power button again would bring it out of standby..

Recently I installed XP again, and now whenever I standby what happens is the screen would simply shut off and nothing else. The CPU and the keeps on running.

Help me sort it out..

are you having AMD

No, Its a Pentium 2.4 with ASUS P4GE MX motherboard. There was no problem with it till now and I think I might have changed some settings accidentally.
Now what to do?

you can go to bios and check if you changed any thing in power options or i think you must have done some Drivers update and that power options vanished after that

I haven't done any Single motherboard Drivers update. I don't change anything in the BIOS except the Boot Sequence. I cleared the BIOS twice now, but nothing is happening

Is it some problem with Windows?

i is not a problem if your system is resuming correctly, i had this problem in AMD but after installting Cool n quiet drivers it solved , so i think windows power management error only

I can't say it as a perfect resume, because if I move the mouse, system resumes, as if in a screensaver.

Are there any other Power Options, apart from the Display Properties->Screensaver->Power?

i think there are some which are hidden in GPEDIT i think VISHAL CAN HELP IN this.. i am not sure though

Vishal, your method didn't help...
I didn't find that registry key.
