I'm not sure if this is posted in the right category, but here goes.
I'm running Vista Ultimate 32 bit with a Core 2 Duo e4600 and 4gb ram in an ECS P4m900-T mobo.
Firstly, my pc doesn't seem to want to sleep. When I click on the sleep button it attempts to power down, but then comes back on immediately after. It also doesn't sleep automatically even though I have set it to sleep after 2 hours. I've tried setting it to sleep quick so I can see what happens in this case, but it does the same thing. Power down then power up. The screensaver comes on, but afterwards the screen only goes into standby mode and no sleep. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Then secondly, when I turn my pc on, the resolution has changed. This happens randomly, but often. My default res is 1680x1050, but it changes by itself to a lower value. I have the latest drivers for my card(8600gt 512) and display installed. These problems only started manifesting about a month ago. It hasn't happened before and now it's starting to irritate me.
Any help is great. Thanks
