Sleep is a Windows function, and it doesn’t work well on desktops. And sometimes not even well on notebooks/netbooks. Write to Microsoft and ask them when they are going to fix it…
That is a particulary ridiculous comment. Sleep is an OS function available on every OS since at least OS/2 – now including Windows and Linux and everything else. There is hardware support built in to both the CPUs and most peripheral cards. I use sleep all the time on my desktops to save power – reduces a 150w idle system to nearly zero. Don’t you try to reduce power/heat on your systems? If you don’t shame on you.
