Hello,
I am not able to make power management work properly on Windows XP Pro. running on Dell Inspiron 5160.
I have set the times for the monitor, hard disk shutdown, standby and hibernate, but except the LCD turning off after the correct time, nothing else works. The disk does not shutdown (there is a periodic activity on it), and standby and hibernate also do not work.
I have since uninstalled Dell utility 'Dell Quickset' but nothing changed for the better.
This problem occurs whether the laptop is running on mains or on battery.
How do I solve this problem? All help is appreciated.
thanks.
