re: Fans still running in standby mode Monday, July 17, 2006 at 10:54 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Dimitri (2 messages posted) OK, I've found what works for me. I downloaded a small utility program called Sleeper (http://www.passmark.com/products/sleeper.htm) that forces my PC to go into S3 state (Stand By mode with all fans off). Just make sure when you configure it, you select "Force Into Selected State" and "Sleep Forever" (untill user wake up) options. Unless you want for your PC to wake up after a certain amount of time. After you run this program once you won't need to access it anymore to go into Stand By mode - your regular Windows option will start working like it should. Oh, and the USB mouse and keyboard will still have to be unchecked from "Allow to wake up" option (actually the Sleeper will give you an error message prompting you to do that if you don't). OK, one problem solved, more to go :) Thank you Bill Gates for making my life so interesting!
