I have a question about Dealing with Windows's Advanced Power Management (APM):

After waking XP from Standby, the desktop is non-responsive. Mouse works but no response.

Check the event viewer to see if there are any error messages that are pointing to a driver or hardware device that could be causing this. Those are the most common causes. Some computers never do get along with the standby feature. :-( C K

Yes..the Error event is a "DCOM" failure apparently having to do with starting "Windows Messenger". I previously disabled Messenger and it will stay that way. Guess I'll have to run my Power Mgmnt features from BIOS instead. :-( Thanks.
