I have installed xp into a vmware session and no Standby and no Hibernate was available
under
Power Options.
Then I have installed VMware tools and after the reboot the "Hibernate" tab was available
but Standby still not selectable in the options (therefore I think to get the Hibernate
tab you need to install the correct driver. For VMware it was only necessary to install
the SVGA driver!!! Nothing more. Only here was a yellow questionmark in the Device
Manager which disappeared after installing the SVGA driver).
I have had no success to get the standby option enabled by enabling the power savings
in the BIOS.
