My HP OfficeJet R40xi works just fine when I boot up or re-boot my desktop PC, but if I've shutdown to "hibernate" or "standby" I consistently get a "This document failed to print" error message. This problem started after I installed the SP-2 patch. I've double checked my parallel port settings in system BIOS and Device Manager and I've removed & reinstalled the driver but so far haven't found a solution.
View 1 RepliesI have configured the powermanagement of my Windows XP clients (XP Prof. SP1 and SP2). I have setup the computers to enter standby after 1 h and hibernate after 2 h. The clients successfully wake up on LAN traffic.I would like to monitor the standby, hibernate and wake up events in any kind of event log.

View 8 Replies View RelatedGreetings. This subject has been well discussed but I haven't seen this particular problem. Hibernate has been working fine on my fairly state of the art PC (WinXP up-to-date, nothing changed, added or removed recently) for ages. Suddenly, on wakeup, it gets to desktop, icons and taskbar and bye bye, shuts down. Just once it has hung before the icons and taskbar phase.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI entered my XP run PC into standby yesterday but as it would not resume later, I turned it off using the power button. Now it won't wake up again. I have been sitting in front of a blank screen for 3 hours. The monitor displays "no video signal", so I exchanged monitors but the other one stays blank too. The pc appears to be running but will not boot. I have entered Windows CD to restore but it won't even boot that.

View 11 Replies View RelatedHibernate and Standby were working fine on the machine. But since about a week. Both the Standby and Hibernate feature are not working. The detailed explanation is given below. I have three account profiles all set to admin. The computer does go on standby or hibernate when on the welcome screen but only if no one is logged on. If I have logged on, and then i select standby or hibernate nothing happens. After this if i try to shut down the computer it kind of hangs halfway through the shutdown process. It seems that it is trying to hibernate and shutdown at the same time.
If I have not requested for a hibernate or standby, and then try to shutdown the computer. It shuts down properly. if I log-off to the welcome screen and no other account is logged on then also the hibernate and standby work fine. I have tried to run system restore, but when it boots up in the restore process, i get a message that no changes have been made try another restore point... i have tried many points but it does not work.... am totally confused. I have also reinstalled the patch on the Microsoft website for XP where a machine with more than 2Gb of ram needs to hibernate.
My Dell Mini 10V netbook, with Windows XP, SP3 won't standby or hibernate. It hangs at the "Preparing to Standby". I have to completely shut it off by holding the power switch. It reboots fine. It will shutdown without delay, but it doesn't save the desktop layout. I've tried the clean boot and it still doesn't standby. I'm doing the testing without the external monitor, keyboard, or mouse and it doesn't make any difference. It has all the original hardware. It would standby when I first got it and I have another Mini 10V that does standby and hibernate correctly.

I am presently using PGP 6.5.1 and want to keep it. I'm using it for the PGPdisk features with encrypted
volumes (directories). It works fine in WinXP with both existing PGD volumes that I have (from previous
systems) and it also works fine with newly created PGD volumes. The only problem is that it prevents WinXP from entering Standby modes when I attempt this power down feature in WinXP for my laptop.........
After a huge upgrade and fresh XP installation (up to SP2), my computer won't standby hibernate. The only parts that remained were the HDs, RAID card, and power supply. MOBO was upgraded to X38, GPU to GF8800GT, and CPU is now Dual Core. Prior to the upgrade, my PC could go into standby. Now it is "grayed out."I went to power management, hibernation tab is not there. I tried reinstalling MOBO drivers, same thing. My comp used to be able to do this in XP. Well, I read about it, and supposedly, dual core cannot go into standby (or at least winxp doesn't want to allow the user to do this with DualC). Is that true? Edit: I even tried the hotfix and disabling terminal services. No effect.I tried apmstat -v, and it said that this is an ACPI machine and that APM is not relevant.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Dell running Windows XP. My IP has been changing often with the upgrades from my cable company (I have high speed internet service and I use a router), making it impossible for me to get onto my company's websites due to the firewalls. Causing me to have to wait until a supervisor comes on for me to work. I shut my computer completely down when I am done with my shift. Someone has suggested that I put my computer on Standby or Hibernate it to avoid the IP from changing.
1. If I use hibernate of standby will that stop the IP from changing since I am not really shutting it off?
2. How do I come back from hibernate or standby? Everything I read in my help section tells you how to put the computer in that state but not bringing it back up.
3. Will not completely shutting off my computer cause more wear and tear on it, making me have to get another one sooner?
I run Windows XP Home. When I close my notebook and / or put it into standby mode it won't come out, it just gives me a black screen and I have to power down manually. Also, when I try to put it into hibernation mode, it gives a blue error screen that says the system has shut down Windows to avoid damage.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor years I shut down the computer every night, then turn it on in the morning, but some one told me I should just leave it on all the time and use the Hibernate feature under the Power options? I've never become familiar with this or the difference between Hibernate and Standby. I have ZoneAlarm Pro as a firewall, along with Earthlink, which stops span and scans for virus email before I can dl it, so I feel sort of save there, but am not sure about this. I also have an APC back up power supply to cover me against power failure, and it will save and shut all programs down and turn off the computer after waiting a few minutes. Is it better to leave the computer on all the time and have the HDs turn off after an hour or so, the monitor turn off, and then have the computer go to Hibernate mode, instead of rebooting each day?

Standby is grayed out in the turn off computer menu and the hibernate tab does not exist in the power options utility in control panel.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I press the hibernate or standby button, the computer just exits the shutdown screen and nothing happens at all. However, Logging Off, Restarting, and Shutdown buttons all work fine. I first ran into this problem when I installed Internet Explorer 7, which I downloaded from the website www.oldversion.com. I do not want to uninstall Internet Explorer to try to fix this problem cause I installed it so that my wireless usb drive would connect to the access point and connect to the internet.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI use P2P and my machine runs overnight, 24 X 7. I have also noticed a sizeable jump in my electricity bills and then that's obvious. I was planning to cut down the power consumption[ @ nights] by keeping my XP either on 'standby' or 'hibernate' mode. Question is , will my P2P[emule or torrent] fall off with either of these two getting activated? Basically my ideal situation would be power consumption + P2P running in the backgrd.

View 3 Replies View RelatedBasically anytime my computer requires my login and password to get back to the desktop, after I hit <enter> it takes way over a minute to come back. I can hit <ctrl+alt+del>, then <k> to lock the screen, immediately try to log back in and it will take over a minute to show me my desktop again.I don't know where to begin to troubleshoot this. I also have Ubuntu installed on a separate partition and grub is the bootloader; however, I don't see how this could affect my WinXp install since Ubuntu is not running at the time.
