Hello all, thnx for the read.

Here's the problem. If you've got any suggestions, would be greatly
appreciated.

My computer is running XP Home with SP2. Norton Internet Security 2005.
Recently it started having alot of trouble "waking up" from standby.
Sometimes ok, but mostly requiring hard reset and reboot....? Suspect I may
have "over cleaned up" at some point in time and deleted a required file or
something. Pretty stumped right now and not good at decoding event viewer.

Did a search on this page and failed to turn up anything useful.

TIA,

Squid.

Have never tried...I'll give it a read and a shot....

Any other tips to look to see what might be hanging it?

No love with the system restore. Tried to restore from a month ago...and
system was unable on multiple attempts.

Anyone else have a clue on how to look at what may be hanging computer up in
STBY?

-Thx,
Squid
