O.P. About PC suspend mode
Hey guys, I have put my PC into S3 suspend mode, but when I suspend the computer, my network is lost, thus MSN is signed off. Is there a way to retain network connection while the computer is in suspension mode?
Thanks!

O.P. RE: About PC suspend mode
After I unticked "Allow this computer to turn off this device to save power", I still lose internet connection. I mean I was signed on msn and was downloading stuff, but when I went into suspension mode, msn disconnects and the download pauses...
Is there a way to be in suspension mode yet not getting d/c from msn?

No, its one or the other. Your computer cant be off and still connected to MSN.. either keep it on, or close MSN

O.P. RE: About PC suspend mode
so which method saves more power?
Shutting off monitor and HD after x minutes, or going to suspend mode?
