Thanks for the detailed information. I can't wait to test it on the Depressed Pavilion Notebook for the diagnosis (but I've got to wait till the next time that I see the friend of mine who's the owner...)

By the way, when the pc start crying in the middle of the night, shouldn't it be turned off? Why should it wake up for any reason, if it isn't connected to a lan or anything else? Well, this is just my reasoning for now, but soon I will see if the Event Viewer says anything about any perceived stimulation during the notebook (expected) sleep...

Bye for now - and thanks again
