My system consists of the following: OS: Windows 98 SE Motherboard: Asus A7V133 rev 1.05.

Make sure it is enabled in the BIOS under the Power Menu; Power Management.

Okay, I think I'm a little confused ... Must I have ACPI in order to have "Advanced Power Management support" ? In the "good" HDD/partition, there is no mention of ACPI under "System devices" but there is an "Advanced Power Management support" item, which is what I'm trying to replicate on the other HDD/partition.

"Power Management" is set to "User Define" in the BIOS. "mdp" wrote in message k.net... Make sure it is enabled in the BIOS under the Power Menu; Power Management. "Adam" wrote in message om...

Yes, there's a "Power Management" icon in Control Panel. "here_and_there" wrote in message ...

The procedure for adding Advanced Power Management support in Device Manager is to
use the Add New Hardware wizard to search for new hardware, and if it detects APM support, to allow it to install, and then reboot. However, you may not be able to detect it without installing the drivers on motherboard disc. What VIA drivers version number did you install? Have you tried other versions from the VIA support web site? -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Adam" wrote in message om... My responses are inline ...
