Hi, Probably a BIOS issue more than a Vista issue. But if you disable the ability to use Hybrid Sleep in your Power Options, then you should be back to the older Standby option IIRC

Hi Ken Apologies for hijacking your thread. I don't mind at all. When I put my machine into sleep mode I cannot resume it no matter what I do. It just stays in that state and I have no option but to pull the power cable out of the back. Reading a number of articles this problem is quite common. I'm hoping SP1 will resolve it but I am not totally convinced it will, as I have installed a few Hotfixes that could possibly have helped, but to no avail.. The problem is that I sometimes accidentally hit sleep on the shutdown menu when I mean to hit shutdown or restart. The simplest way to avoid that problem would be not to have it on that menu at all. So I am just wondering can it be done and if so how please? It is not a major issue but it would be nice to know. Many thanks in advance. Regards, Paul Lemonidis.

Well, since my thread got hijacked, I'll re-hijack if you don't mind :-) Why do you want to do this?

Hi all Can I ask this question too please. The problem I have is that there in the option to disable hibernate under power options but not the sleep function. You can set it to never but that doesn't get it off the shutdown options. I would like the Sleep option to not be visible on the shutdown options at all but have yet to find out how. Many thanks in advance. Regards, Paul Lemonidis.

Disable Hibernate (powercfg -h off) and then disable sleep support? Cheers Ken From: Silvio L.

And sorry for hijacking the question, but how can one remove *both* options from the shutdown menu? ----- Original Message ----- From: Ken Schaefer<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: NT System Admin Issues<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, February 10, 2008 3:11 AM Subject: Vista - Sleep and Hibernate options? Hi all, On a couple of laptops I have both Sleep and Hibernate available from the Start Menu On my desktop I can have either Hibernate -or- Sleep (depending on what I choose in the Power Options control panel). How do I get both options onto the Start Menu? (at the moment I've created a short cut to shutdown.exe -h and saved it onto the desktop to manually hibernate). TIA Cheers Ken ________________________________ No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
