It sounds like you need to make some changes in the Power Management Setup of your bios.
Pull out the manual for your mobo and have a look.

When you find the section in your manual you will find things like :
ACPI Suspend to RAM, Power UP on PCI Device and other power features for your board. Check the manual first so you'll know what the defaults are. |

Its not always good to go into standby, hibernate or even use the harddisk power down.
I had many experiences that the system does not actually wake up. From the complexities of pagefiles, timestamps, Bios settings, wake up lags on HDDs or the O/S and the mixture of processing speeds etc, things may go wrong. |
