When you say fn-12 do you mean Function-F12 ? If so, most laptop "Function" key behavior is controlled by the BIOS. I'd poke around the BIOS setup to see if it can be changed there.
You might also try Shift-Function-F12 or Ctrl-Function-F12 or Alt-Function-F12.

I don't have a "when I press the sleep button" on that pane -- I have "when I close the cover" and "when I push the power button". I don't really want to make the power button do anything other than power-down the system, so what I've done, since the fn-12 seems to be pretty hardwired to do "hibernate" is make the close-cover [which I used to have hibernate] do a standby. It'd be nice if I could mess with that [e.g, make the otherwise-unused fn-11 do standby, but it appears that that's not possible... /Bernie\ -- Bernie Cosell Fantasy Farm Fibers mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Pearisburg, VA --> Too many people, too few sheep <-- -- ---------------------------------------- WIN-HOME Archives: http://PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM/archives/WIN-HOME.html Contact the List Owner about anything: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Official Win-Home List Members Profiles Page http://www.besteffort.com/winhome/Profiles.html -- ---------------------------------------- The WIN-HOME mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
