I just put together an ASUS A7V, Duron600 system the other day and would like to know how to wake the system up. If its only been in powersave a few minutes, moving the mouse will wake it up. If its been there for awhile, moving the mouse, using the kb, nothing, I have to use the reset switch. Is the system powered off or what? Still learning about all the power option for this thing.
Thanks

Probably just went into the "deep power-saving mode", or in other words, crashed.

I don't think its crashed. If I disable all powersave functions, it will run all day with no problems. If I disable system standby and just turn off monitor and hd, it comes back up ok.

Racer7201,

I had the same problem. Just build a systemw/ KT7-RAID and Duron 700. It is some kind of deep standby. I hadn't figured how to get out either, but it definitely isn't a crash.

You need to change the standby mode in the BIOS from "coma" to "sleep". :D Really though I have no idea, but would like to hear what you learn.
