Problem Cause and action
The computer does not
enter standby mode as
set by the timer under
Windows 98.
For Windows 98:
The generic CD- or DVD-ROM driver for Windows 98 accesses the internal CD-
or DVD-ROM drive every 3 seconds to see whether a CD or DVD is inserted
there. This prevents your computer from entering standby mode even after a
timeout. To enable the computer to enter standby mode, do the following:
1. Click Start.
2. Move the cursor to Settings and Control Panel.
3. Click Control Panel, and then double-click System.
4. Click the Device Manager tab.
5. Click the + mark of CD-ROM.
6. Double-click the name of the CD- or DVD-ROM.
7. Click the Settings tab.
8. Clear the Auto insert notification check box.
Windows 98 no longer detects the insertion of a CD or DVD automatically.
When creating a
hibernation file, Sleep
Manager gives off a
"Not Enough Space for
Allocation" message.
Sleep Manager needs enough, contiguous hard disk drive space to create and
manage the hibernation file.
Make sure the hard disk drive space is sufficient for Sleep Manager's require-
ments. This can be viewed from the Sleep Manager main screen. If there are still
problems, there might not be enough contiguous free space to create the
hibernation file. Use a disk defragementation utility to solve the problem.
Note: Sleep Manager is available only in Windows 98.
