Right click your Desktop, hover your mouse over NEW and then click Shortcut
Paste this into the destination box
%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState
Click Next
Rename it SLEEP
Click Finish
This will now work, but if you'd like a new icon for it, Right Click it, choose
Properties and Change Icon and pick one from
%SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll
