Hello everybody,
I recently upgraded my laptop to windows xp pro sp2 and I noticed a problem that I didn't experience before while I was using "home edition".
The problem: when I put my laptop to sleep (i.e: standby), I can't get it to awaken again. When I press any key, my laptop makes a woking noice but the screen stays black. It doesn't matter how long I wait, it just won't come back.
What could this be?
Mabye some help here ?

Never upgrade an OS. It's better to format and fresh install.
That's what I did :-)Quote:

when you put your laptop in sleep mode is it plug into the mains or by battery if its battery it could be the battery is wacked.
another option try uninstalling sp2 go to microsofts website and they have a list of programs which conflict with sp2.
uninstall it.
good luck.
