Default Cannot get sleep mode or display function to work

Nope, no help, I had no luck. I basically want the display to go into
standby mode and not turn off, and the hard drive to do the same, but the
display turns off after a set amount of time, no matter what time I put into
the pull down menu, and the hard drive never turns off, again, no matter what
I input.

I cannot seem to get the sleep mode or hibernate mode to work at all.
Additionally, and more frustating and important to me, is I cannot get
the
display to reactivate and go back on once it has gone off by simply
moving
the mouse. I have to push the 'ON' button on my display to activate it,
and
unfortunately this button is beginning to stick, and I don't want
another
problem to arise if this fails. I have tried all the numerous fixes I
can
think of, going between different power options and trying them, but
nothings
seems to work. I am running Vista Ultimate. Thanks in advance for any
help.

Rick
