Title: putting windows xp HOME in sleep cog
Post by: Blackberry 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..
