Stand By

[SKG]

Using Windows XP, when I click "Turn off computer" the
choice for "Stand By" is not available -- only "Turn off"
and "Restart" are highlighted.
How can I activate "Stand BY".
Thank you

Visit the support website of the manufacturer of your video card,
search for Windows XP drivers, download and install them. Once
this is accomplished, the Standby button will become enabled.

If you have a notebook PC, then visit the notebook manufacturer's
support website and download the Windows XP video adapter drivers.
