standby/hibernate mode button grey, not working1 person needs an answerI do too

Sounds like your system could use a video driver update.What is your system make and model? What is your XP Version and Service Pack?Describe your current antivirus and anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc.Have these options ever worked?What do you think happened since they worked last?Is the Stand By button missing or grayed out (unavailable)?From the Turn Off Computer option, if you press the Shift key, does the Stand By button turn into a Hibernate button?Please provide additional information about your system:Click Start, Run and in the box enter:msinfo32Click OK, and when the System Summary info appears, click Edit, Select All, Copy and then paste the information back here.For video driver information, expand the Components, click Display, click Edit, Select All, Copy and then paste the information back here.There will be some personal information (like System Name and User Name), and whatever appears to be private information to you, just delete it from the pasted information.This will minimize back and forth Q&A and eliminate guesswork.While you are waiting, I would recommend you do this:Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:Malwarebytes (MBAM): http://malwarebytes.org/SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/They can be uninstalled later if desired.When the scans run clean, then troubleshoot any remaining issues.Don't guess what the problem might be - figure it out and fix it.
