How do I get suspend working on my puter?
Board: MSI 760GM-P23
Processor: AMD FX 4300 BLACK EDITION 3.8 GHZ Quad Core - 8 gig cache
8gigs memory
Monitor shuts down, computer stays on.
:huh:
You will need to edit your preferences here, desktop systems are usually not set up to suspend by default.
System Settings > Power Management
Never had a problem before. what am I suppose to edit? I took a look and nothing there, regarding.
Suspend session allotted time and what type (sleep hibernate,etc.)
I don’t think you understand the situation.
I’m not looking to suspend on timed basis… I’m simply wanting the puter to go to sleep when I put it into suspension.
When I DO select the suspension icon from the log-out menu, the monitor goes to sleep, but the puter stays awake! I don’t know any other way of explaining the situation.
So it is not going into deep sleep (s3).
I guess it is enabled in bios ?
Did you install proprietary drivers for your graphicscard (if applicable, so only for ati/amd & nvidia) ?
No… the graphix are ATI Radeon 3000HD.
I went into the bios and it was set to S1. So I set it to S3 and got it working. Thanks
