My Laptop Isn't Givin Me Standby/hibernate Option If Am Turning It Off Plz Help! by UNLEASHED(m): 6:10pm On Dec 03, 2007 |
My computer is not giving me standby or hibernate option when i want to shut it down. It is before i formatted it but after I only have the option of restarting or turning it off. What could be the cause of this? |

Since you say it was there before you re-formatted you system, that means your system does support ACPI management. Try this: 1- Go to "Control Panel -> Power Options" 2- Click the Hibernate [/b]tab, select the[b] Enable hibernate check box, and then click Apply 3- Though strange that the Stand-by option does not show up, but doing the above would put both "Stand-by" and "Hibernation" options on the shutdown menu. If only the "Stand-by" option shows up, simply hold down on the "shift" key and it would change to "hibernate". Hope this helps! |

if your VGA drivers are not installed u won't be able to carry out the steps outlined by maleeq, so make sure your vga drivers are installed before u can think of enabling hibernate from your power options. |
