Odd occurance.

Hey guys, I've always had this problem with this computer but I have never took the time to figure it out. Basically what is happening is if I hit the stand-by button on my keyboard my computer is took to stand-by but it won't come out of it. I move the mouse, click keys, hit the stand-by button again and it just stays there. I end up having to shut down my computer and let it sit. The really odd thing about is it.. it won't power back on for at least 20 minutes. Anyone have any idea why it does this?

Maybe check the bios to see about resume from sleep from keyboard or mouse.

Usually when the computer going stand-by, you need to press on the power button just one to wake it up...Dell, IBM, HP all do the same at where I work.
