That article says it only applies to Windows 98/ME, he said he has media center edition.

First thing I would do is make sure standby is enabled in your BIOS.

I don't think you should be messing with your computer if you do not know what BIOS is. Take it to a professional.
If your standby option is no loger operational, back track to a day when it was working. You may have installed a program that has conflict.

If you can't find power managment options in your BIOS then try the following:


Update BOIS to latest version

Update motherboard drivers

Update video card driver


You can download those files from your PC manufacturer's website.
