HI. I get the above error message when i try to enter standby. Its says to update drivers, i have done this and it has not worked.
It does this when on a/c power and when running off batteries.
My pc is a toshiba satellite Laptop with xp home. I can't think of anything ive done for it to do this.
Any one know how to fix this?
Thanks for any suggestions
Tom
