Suspend and hibernation don't work on my Windows XP system.
The computer does not do anything after I enter suspend state (like it hangs; keyboard lights don't function); I have to shut-down and reboot to reuse it. Hibernation is 'ignored' when I reboot the system after hibernation.
I've tried all the BIOS settings, but nothing works. Any suggestions?

You wouldn't happen to have both APM and ACPI activated simultaneously in BIOS?

XP power management is not generally fully functional with a BX board, in my experience. See the collected wisdom forum.
Flash your BIOS at your own risk.
