I have a laptop with Vista ultimate 64 installed on it. A few weeks ago it stopped going into hibernate or sleep mode. It used to be set up to do one of those two when I closed the lid, however now it just stays running until the battery dies. If I go into the start menu and manually put it into either sleep or hibernate it the screen just goes black and it keeps running. I can't think of anything that I have done or changed that would cause this to happen, nor do I have any idea where to start to try and fix it short of reinstalling vista. Any Ideas?

Thanks,
Anthony
