My P4C800 DLX, bios 1016, 2 SATA HDs Win XP pro. Will come out of standby
after a short period, but after an extended period seems to attempt to but
nothing shows up on the monitor. Any ideas??

There are some wake-up settings in the BIOS - things like
wake on keystroke, mouse, etc. I had to set mine to make
the machine come back up. Might not be your problem but
an easy thing to check and try.

Thanks I did that with the video card and I got a lot of hard error
messages. I think it has something to do with the SATA drives.
 
Not coming back from standby is usually caused by a device installed in the
computer. You can try removing devices one at a time until you find the one
responsible.
 
Same exact thing here with PC4800E-Dlx and SATA Raid HDs. I finally
just had to give the idea up..

Hope you find and share an answer

The difference between standby and hibernate is only a few seconds. I would
love for everything to work as designed but after many years messing with
computers I have come to the conclusion that there will always be some kind
of hang up, work around, required patch, etc.. I am convinced that this
issue has to do with the SATA drives; so until there is a BIOS or OS update
that addresses this issue I will use hibernate.
 
Nothing to do with SATA drives unless those you have are faulty.
Troubleshooting APM and now ACPI problems can sometimes tax the best of us.
Not only can it involve the pulling then subsequent incremental replacement
of devices but also doing the equivalent with some types of software,
associated startup programs and services. The best tool for possible
software related issues is the msconfig utility. Unless your problem is
being experienced by everybody (obviously not the case here) then it's
either getting to work solving it or settling on a workaround. And yes the
solution may involve a required upgrade or patch, but if it doesn't exist
already then you'll be in a position to request one.
 
I looked in past threads and found a recmentation to set the three pin
jumpers USBPW12, 34, 78, and 56 (P4C800 DLX) to +5VSB (Default is +5V) and
that seems to have done the trick. This is recomended in the manual, under
USB device wake-up, for wake up from S3 and S4 sleep modes (no power to CPU,
DRAM in slow refrest, power supply in reduced power mode).
 
Never mind it still hangs....

I have taken out everything but the video card (ati aiw 8500 drivers are MS
sined), I removed all non MS services and all startup items via msconfig.
and it still wont resume from standby (s2 or s3). I have tried every BIOS
option I can think of. All software installed has worked on other
installations. The only varable is the MB and the SATA drives.
 
I am having exactly the same problem witha p4p800 dlx and maxtor sata
drive. Has anyone found a solution to this?
