Hey guys,
Recently, I have not been able to get my computer to sleep. I used to press a button on the keyboard and it would go to sleep, this worked until a couple of days ago. When I press the button now, the monitors go black and then take me to the login screen.
I have already done a system restore to see if it was a Window Update that screwed everything up, that didn't work. I currently dual-boot with Lucid Lynx and the sleep button works fine in there, so it's definitely a windows problem.
I have not made any hardware changes since December and I haven't installed any new software since mid-January and I was able to sleep after installing it. I haven't made any changes to the power options in the control panel, other than what I've read to try and troubleshoot the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
