The key to your problem is "Laptop". Most require a specialized driver set
from the OEM.
In any event, it sounds like the OS did not see a recognizable compatable
power management hardware configuration, so it defaulted. There are some
possible cures, but I'd only try them with a desktop.
Thanks, Chuck. There are a bunch of Sager updates that I have to d/l (video drivers, chipset revisions, etc.) and I may get the "Standby" option back after I do that. If nothing else, its nice to know that I'm not the only one experiencing this...thought I might have messed something up when I did the install.

"Turn Off Computer", I get the "Turn Off" and "Restart" options but the
"StandBy" option is greyed out. BTW, its a full version of XP Pro but its
"academic" (got it thru school)...can't imagine that would make a
difference...also, I installed it on a laptop (a Sager NP5660). Anyway, I
had XP Home before and didn't have this issue.
