Greyed-out STAND BY button (No HIBERNATE tab either)
Thanks everyone. I finally found out the answer - I upgraded from Windows XP home to XP pro. I shound have done a full install. It gave me other problems, such as not being able to creat an internet connection (dial-up modem was also greyed-out). A full install seemed to resolve all these...- NormanWillcox

Greyed-out STAND BY button (No HIBERNATE tab either)
Thanks guys for the suggestions. I switched off my screen-saver (and I've also got 100+GB free), but neither worked. Norman- NormanWillcox

Greyed-out STAND BY button (No HIBERNATE tab either)
On Turn-off Computer, the STAND BY button is greyed out. I've seen other problems like this and they suggest using Control Panel, Power Options to set the HIBERNATE option on - unfortunately there is no HIBERNATE tab available to me. I suspect a missing file or registry entry or perhaps a BIOS...- NormanWillcox
