Default !Does anybody has problems with standby ??

My pc wont go to standby. Everytime it tries, it'll come right back to
windows. Can it be because of the firewall always working? Antivirus
program? It will do the same thing with herbination. The only way is to shut
it off, which I don't really like coz it takes forever to restart. Thanks
for any suggestion.

Power management features-in particular standby and hibernation-rely on
device drivers that support power management in addition to compatible
hardware. In particular, incompatible video drivers prevent these features
from working. The built-in VGA driver, for example, is a bare-bones driver
that doesn't support power management.
If standby and hibernate don't work, install an updated driver for your
display adapter.
