I am working on a Compac 5000 series, win98. The hd will not go to sleep. I have checked the powersaver at startup, advanced power supply and power supply in control panel, and settings on desk top. All read enabled or set to a specific time. I shut off all screen savers and tsr programs. Moniter sleeps ok but hd will not. Any suggestions are welcome.
