Your hardware dont support Standby feature .. thats why it never comes back to life .. the 845 line of Intel boards seem to not support it ..
hey bat, u r mistaken, i have an intel 845 chipset based mobo, and i can make the system to stand by/hibernate without any probs in both win xp/98
but maybe some 845 chipsets (maybe 845GVAD/GLLY....) doesnt support stand by support....or maybe standby might be disabled in the bios.
anyway, hey gunjan...try the instructions here...
