I have just purchased a new system with XP Home edition on
it. This my problem. When you go to the start menu to
shut down the "standby" option is greyed out and cannot be
selected. My other XP Home system does not have this
problem. Any ideas how to correct this?

Thanks,
John
 
Please check your system bios to make sure power management is enabled.

Also go to your Start Menu, Run and type devmgmt.msc which will bring up
Device Manager

Doubleclick on Computer to expand it, Does it say ACPI? ACPI is what you
want in order for Standby to work.

Thanks
