Sleep Mode Shortcut in Vista 64

I want to use Sleep Mode with a single shortcut on my desktop.


How to make a SLEEP mode shortcut on your desktop:

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


Whack it onto your desktop and use it to save elctricity :)

Try making a shortcut with this path...

Code:

---

rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll, SetSuspendState Sleep

---

%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState

was what I used :)

hey.... did I make something that someone actually USED?

0iD... did it WORK?

bleedin hell... I'll be a code monkey yet ;)

replaced it with text.. it's dead easy :)

Pity this computer crashes every now and then when resuming from sleep. I think I've narrowed it down to a youtube video being open in Firefox that causes it for some reason...

Yeah I thought Zak might have done it differently though, was just interested.
