I had some problems after setting 'Power-up Mode = boot / 'Standby time = 
unlimited' in BIOS.  I couldn't access BIOS any more!  Found out that the 
Toshiba 'Power Saver' settings in Windows were overriding whatever I did in 
BIOS, and kept resetting whatever I changed the 'Power-up Mode' to.   Had to 
coax and cajole the system to get into BIOS by repeated tries.  It seemed to 
respond to having the FDD inserted.

But now that I set 'Power-up Mode = Hibernation' and "'Standby time = 
unlimited' in the Toshiba 'Power Saver' settings, and set the times for 
'System Standby', 'Turn of monitor' and 'Turn of hard disks' in Windows 
'Power Management'  Everything is working fine.

I could have sworn remembering a few people writing about having this 
'Standby time = unlimited' set up so their systems just wakes up pretty 
instantly.

Matt
