114809 2003-01-18 01:04:00 I just changed the CPU on my motherboard from a Celeron 500 to a PIII 500, nothing else was changed, everything works fine except whenever my machine goes into standby mode, on resuming the machine either locks up or re-boots, running WinXP Pro with SP1 applied. Any ideas folks. Dak2 (1963)
114810 2003-01-18 05:47:00 Did you do a BIOS upgrade and/or re-install your operating system? Elephant (599)
114811 2003-01-18 06:26:00 Nope, neither, board already has the latest bios, the board in question is a dual, ie, it has both a PGA370 socket and a Slot One, the Celeron was a PGA, the new PIII is a Slot One. The CPU change was the only change done. Dak2 (1963)
114812 2003-01-18 07:29:00 Have you changed a CPU before? Lohsing (219)
114813 2003-01-18 09:18:00 Ahhhhh, yes, quite a few times, prolly more times than you've had hot dinners. :-) Dak2 (1963)
114814 2003-01-18 09:19:00 Just a thought
go to control panel to power options and disable going into standby mode

114815 2003-01-18 09:40:00 Yup, done that untill I can find a proper fix, I would rather have the machine capable of properly going into standby. Dak2 (1963)
114816 2003-01-18 09:44:00 There are several known bugs with standby. You will have to research it on the motherboard manufacturers website, if they are worthwhile. Marty2001 (421)
114817 2003-01-20 07:05:00 Another possibility is that the PIII had the full set of ACPI extensions or changed/updated the ACPI/APM extensions / drivers.

Does your board support APIC? There is a site at Microsoft regarding this. I suggest searching at:
support.microsoft.com
