I made the change to SetSuspendState(0,1,0) and it worked in my
computer (My server is a laptop with APM). I get enough time in my SB3
to switch to the Squeezenetwork before the server goes into "sleep"
mode. A couple "possible" reasons your server goes into "lite" sleep
could be that the "hibernate" option in your server is enabled or that
your server is setup for WOL and you do not switch the SqueezeBox to
connect to the SqueezeNetwork. (If WOL is enabled the SB continually
tries to reconnect to server and wakes it up right after it falls to
sleep).

The other suggestion I have is to add a yes/no option (confirmation
message) before the  Shutdown/Restart/Hibernate/Sleep begins. Once you
press the right arrow there is no going back.

Thanks
