    Default It takes 2 mins to wake up from sleep

    Hi,

    I alway shut down the monitor if I will leave the keyboard. But I found, it takes 1-2 mins to wake up when I am back, very slowly. Is it normal?

    Thanks.

    I am surprised your company allowed you to install a beta OS on their PC.

    My suggestion would be to Custom (Clean) install the newer beta OS, Win 8 RP.

    Yeah!
    Why fight with an old OUT OF DATE OS, when a newer and better version has been available since June 1. ???

    Oh, by the way, many computers don't handle 'Sleep' or "Hibernate" very well. That's why I discourage anyone/everyone from using it.
    There have been literally thousands of posts to the internet forums about PC's that went to sleep and never woke up.

    Like any other appliance, a PC should have just two states..... ON and OFF.
