[QUOTE="SpudR, post: 856089, member: 54104"] Although I understand your frustration, you really need to try to post in a less aggressive way. Mark is only trying to help you... Please check the version of your Atapi.sys, it needs to be => 5.1.2600.55 87,168 - before this there were issues with S3 on resume (IDE disk driver does not check the busy bit in the drive status before it resets the drive resulting in things getting seriously messed up!). I also believe that there was some weirdness with USB things and S3 on XP - might want to check that out too... Because Windows update seems to be not reporting correctly I would suspect that there is something wrong with your Windows install. Is it a full install of have you removed stuff? In the longer term you might want to upgrade to Win7 as a minimum - MP2 will not be supported on anything less... ***If you respond aggressively it's unlikely you will get any help! Please try to be calm :) [/QUOTE]
