If the computer doesn’t suspend to Standby mode as expected 

•  If you have a connection to another computer, the computer won’t suspend if the 

connection is active. 

•  If the computer is performing an operation, it normally waits for the operation to 

finish before suspending. 

If the computer doesn’t automatically hibernate as expected 

•  For Windows 2000 or XP, make sure hibernate support is enabled: from Control 

Panel, open Power or Power Options, then click the Hibernate tab. 

Also, check the Power Schemes tab. Make sure the Hibernate timeouts for both AC 
power and battery power are not set to Never.  

•  For Windows 98, check the Hibernate timeout in BIOS Setup—see “To run the BIOS 

Setup utility” on page 135. 

If your computer has more than 512 MB of RAM, you must expand the Utility 
partition on the hard disk—see “To recover the factory installation of your hard disk” 
on page 142.  

If the Standby option is missing from the Shut Down window 

•  Do not allow Windows 98 to disable APM. It may prompt you to do this in certain 

situations—always answer “No”. 

•  If the Windows 98 Standby option is missing, restore it as follows: 

1.  In Control Panel, double-click System. 

2.  On the System Manager tab, expand the System Devices, select Advanced Power 

Management, and click Remove. 

3.  Restart the computer. 

4.  In Control Panel, double-click Add New Hardware, and follow the prompts to 

install support for APM. 

5.  Restart the computer.
