Presario C500 no sleep

Tazman171 · Jun 20, 2009, 02:51 PM

I have a Compaq Presario C500 that will not go into sleep mode anymore. It used to work fine but I can't get it to work now. I can get hibernate to work, but using the sleep button, lid close or sleep from the start menu just shuts off the monitor while the laptop stays on. I've been through all the settings (have it set to hibernate on lid close now) and can't get it to work. It was working fine for over a year but quit about a month ago. I appreciate any help.

Compaq Presario C500
Vista (fully updated)
Pentium Dual Core 1.8 ghz
1 gb ram
