    putting windows xp HOME in sleep cog
    « on: April 17, 2006, 02:14:06 AM »
    Hi there, one of my computers is a laptop and it's running windows XP HOME edition.
    Another computer of my, which is NOT a laptop, is running windows xp HOME too. If I want to set this computer to sleep cog, I can't. Because you have to have windows XP pro for this function. I tried by pushing the shift while i'm at the shut-down menu but that doesn't work, so I thougt, there is no function for windows xp HOME for that.

    However, if the accu from my laptop is up, it put itself to sleep cog.

    Does anyne knows how I can put my not laptop computer to sleep cog?

    Sleep "cog" - had to Google to find out what I think you mean..

    Start>Control Panel>>Power Options>Power Schemes

    Then change the appropriate settings for Home/Office Desk

    Good luck..
