ok... Thank you very much Paul...

I'll give it a try and post back the results...

Just to antecipate... I've already performed more than 10 new ( clean )
Windows installations... but the problem was still the same !!! It seems
the OS is not recognizing the motherboard ACPI management feature (
don't have a clue why... ) ... On all of those installation processes
I tried ( in each time ) BIOS default parameters, POWER MENU Suspend
Mode [S1 (pos) only], POWER MENU Suspend Mode [S3 only], POWER MENU
ACPI 2.0 Support [Yes], POWER MENU ACPI 2.0 Support [No], etc.

... anyway...

Juts to let you know... At this very moment, I have the following
"dumppo" power capabilities information:

power capabilities
System power capabilties
Power Button Present....: TRUE
Sleep Button Present....: FALSE
Lid Present.............: FALSE
System states supported.: S5
Hiber file reserved.....: FALSE
Thermal control.........: FALSE
CPU Throttle control....: FALSE
Processor min throttle..: 100
Processor trottle scale.: 100 (1%)
Some disk will spindown.: TRUE
System batteries present: FALSE
System batteries scale..: (G:0 C:0) (G:0 C:0) (G:0 C:0)
Ac on line wake ability.: Unspecified
Lid wake ability........: Unspecified
RTC wake ability........: S4 - hibernate
Min device wake.........: Unspecified
Default low latency wake: Unspecified


...ok... Now I'll go through the suggested steps and hope to achieve
the "so wanted" result.

Thanks again...

Yes, your results seem to suggest ACPI is not there. Have
you checked the Device Manager and looked at the properties
of "Computer" ? Is it "Standard PC" or is the word "ACPI" in
the title ?

If the word ACPI is present in the Device Manager, I would
try this next. What I'm trying to do here, is get the
"System states supported" to change to S3,S4,S5.

dumppo admin /ac minsleep=S3

I just found this posting, and maybe the info here will help.
More info on using dumppo.exe. It seems "dumppo admin" as
a status check, is a useful option.
