JT01 Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Hey guys. I have a dell laptop with windows xp and I have a simple question. When my computer goes into standy mode (not hibernate) my ethernet card shuts off and when I come out of standby, it takes forever to come back on. Is there a way to keep my ethernet card active during standby? Thanks...

Xtreme $niper Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Ehhh I could have sworn that option in system manager was "do not allow this device to wake PC from sleep mode" Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/278593-xp-system-standby-problem/#findComment-585386736 Share on other sites More sharing options...
