S3 suspend mode

*EDIT* Sorry, I posted this as a new topic, instead of a reply. Sorry

Talking about the Asrock 775Dual-VSTA board here, can it please be moved into the correct thread?

Has anybody been able to get this board to enter S3 suspend mode, where the fans turn off? I can't seem to do it, even with dumppo.exe (MS tool for standby settings)

I am currently running Beta 2 of Vista, but I am not sure that matters.

I am hoping someone has had better luck with this board and standby.

Check the BIOS power options? Force S3 suspend mode instead of S1?

Thanks, but the only option in the bios is enable / disable suspend to ram.

According to dumppo.exe, S1, S3, S4, and S5 states are reported by the motherboard. But when I suspend, I only get S1. And I can't override it to S3.
