  3. Multiple computers won't wake out of sleep mode/start in sleep mode

    Mary, by all accounts your PC is starting up into Sleep mode if the power button is blinking. That's the only thing a blinking power button ever means.

    The only way to get it out of sleep mode if it's failing to display is to press and hold the power button in tightly for at least 30 seconds until it shuts off all power to the PC.

    As I've tried to explain repeatedly, merely pressing the power button only suspends the Sleep state but does not shut down the PC. To actually Shut Down from the power button, one must hold it in tightly until it powers off.

    Then wait another 30 seconds to press the power button once to start it up and try the steps to boot media by pressing and holding the BIOS Boot Menu key..

    Sleep Mode... It won't wake up!

    computer wont wake up in Vista

    thanks, The problem was that on hitting ESC or any key on the keyboard wont wake up the PC either. This seems to be a common problem with Vista from the posts here.
    When I pressed the power button funnily enough, it woke up - then I disabled the mouse ability to wake up as you said. I am not sure what the difference is between hibernate and sleep mode. I pressed start and hit sleep last time, perhaps this time I will try hitting hibernate instead. Mind I shouldnt have to do this then I am manually putting it in hibernate or sleep - isnt it supposed to go into sleep mode itself?
    Sometimes I am glad I still have Wndows XP and my other PC hee.
