  Hi Judith. Standby is a power-saving mode. It puts your hard drive into a 
sort of sleep mode. This is great for laptops but doesn't do anything extra 
except cause annoyance with desktops. 
  Also, JFW and standby don't generally play well at least in my experience. 

  It's your computer so you can do what you want. If you like standby, you can 
set it it in the control pannel under power options. Likewise if you don't like 
standby you can turn it off entirely and have the computer never go into 
standby mode. 
  This is what works best for me. 

  Hope this helps.

    I have no idea, I don't know what "stand by" means.  I just know I disabled 
something that was working on the computer.  That doesn't make it right, it 
just makes it there.  Judith

      First of all, what would you want to put it in stand by for?

        This morning we got a warning that "stand by" was causing my computer 
to crash.  We disabled stand by and I was wondering if we made a mistake.  If I 
really goofed can someone tell me how to get "stand by" back?  Thanks, Judith
