Hi,

I'm running Vista 32 bit on my home edition laptop.

Lately, when I select sleep or hibernate when I'm leaving the laptop,
it won't go into either. It just goes back to the Vista Windows log
in/password screen.

It will shut down if I tell it to, it just won't go into sleep or hibernate.

Thanks for any help
