Solved - Asus P5N-E Sli nForce 650 won't Sleep ?

Just built my new PC and I am have having problems putting it into sleep mode within Vista, the screen goes blank but I can still hear the fans and hard disk working away. When I try to wake up the PC using the power button or keyboard nothing works. Is anyone else using this board within Vista and has Sleep/Hibernation working ?

My Specification is:
Windows Vista 32 Bit
Asus P5N-E Sli nForce 650
Intel Core 2 DUO E6600
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400C4 800MHz (CAS 4-4-4-12)
Seasonic S12 600W Silent ATX2.0 Power Supply
Gainward BLISS GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB
Western Digital Raptor 150GB

Thanks for the reply, does your machine go silent ? I have installed the 0401 bios, with any success I might try reinstalling XP.

Finally made some progress after installing Windows XP which functioned perfectly, so I guess don't have a hardware/bios issue. Unfortunately Vista (32) still blanks my screen makes some hard disk noises then after about 30 seconds my screen returns back into Windows.

Does any one have any ideas ?

I solved the problem on my machine by unticking the 'Allow this device to wake the computer' within the Device Manager for the keyboard and mouse devices.

My mouse is a Razer Diamondback & Keyboard is a Saitek Eclipse.
