This might sound silly, but I can't seem to find the way to wake my laptop up
after putting it into the Sleep Mode.
I just got a new laptop, Toshiba Satellite A200-12V, and I tried the Sleep
Mode once and I couldn't turn it back on. I pressed the Power button, and the
power sign was on, but the monitor stayed off and the laptop was
unresponsive. I had to turn it off forcefully and restart it.
So I just use the Turn-Off Mode(this works fine), but if I leave it on for a
few minutes, it will go into the Sleep Mode automatically and the same thing
would happen again.
Is there a "special Vista" way to turn it on or is it my laptop?
I'm having a hard time changing from XP to Vista. Could anyone help me?

Hi StepKim,

Double check your Power Plan Options in STEP TWO of this tutorial to
make sure that they are set properly for "Sleep".

I had a similar problem with my Satellite (it would also inexplicably turn
the monitor off about every 10 computing hours) until I installed the ROM
update from the Toshiba site. Haven't been bothered since.
