I have set my machine to go to stand-by after 1hr. By just a small movement on the mouse it instantly wakes up, done it for years. At least it did. Now it will not do so and I have to reset it.

Any ideas anyone?

Pop - have a peek at the Bios 'wake on events' or whatever yours are called and this page? (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/reskit/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/reskit/en-us/prdc_mcc_jiox.asp)

Thank you BOAC. I have followed the details and will see if it works.

Have you tried (I'm sure you have) waking it up with the keyboard (space bar) or half-depressing the on/off button (last one works with Dell equipment).
