This article was previously published under Q132576

SYMPTOMS

If you click Suspend on the Start menu, and then press the Suspend button on your Compaq Elite computer before the computer goes completely to sleep, the computer continually suspends and resumes. You must reboot the computer to regain control.

CAUSE

The Advanced Power Management (APM) BIOS in the Compaq Elite computer has trouble processing a software suspend request and a hardware suspend request at the same time.

RESOLUTION

When you want to suspend your Compaq Elite computer, use either the Suspend command on the Start menu or the Suspend button on the computer itself. Wait for the suspend procedure to finish before you perform any other operation.
