You do not hear a battery alarm sound and you do not receive a battery alarm message before the Windows XP-based computer enters hibernation or standby (897102)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
  • Microsoft Windows XP Professional
  • Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition

SYMPTOMS

Before the Microsoft Windows XP-based computer enters hibernation or standby, you do not hear a battery alarm sound and you do not receive a battery alarm message. This symptom occurs if the following conditions are true:
  • You have recently configured the battery alarm settings on the Windows XP-based computer.
  • The Windows XP-based computer enters hibernation or standby for the first time since you configured the battery alarm settings.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because the battery alarm settings that you configure are not synchronized before hibernation or standby. When the Windows XP-based computer enters hibernation or standby, all other processes are suspended. However, all other processes continue when the computer wakes.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
