My XP Home laptop won't reliably go to suspend and hibernate in some or all
configurations.  It used to work, but for quite a while now it doesn't.  I
setup a timed macro with Macro Express to hibernate the computer after 150
minutes of no keyboard/mouse activity.  That works every time without fail.
  Macro Express will also do a suspend instead of a hibernate, but I save
that for when the laptop is undocked, because when docked the external
keyboard and mouse don't wake up properly for dos app input.
