In sleep mode the computer is not shut down completely, what it does is
shut everything down, but it keeps a small amount of power going to the
motherboard and ram, which keeps all your currently opened programs and OS
files on RAM, when it wakes up it just turns everything back on, since the
files are still in ram as they were before, you can continue to use your
computer normally.
When your computer shuts down, it does turn everything off including the
ram, but the motherboard still uses a small amount of power. This power as
I
explained in my reply to Joe's message, is used to turn on the computer
when
you press the power button, or to turn it on using wakeup on lan
feature...
So even when shutdow the computer still requires some power, normally it's
used from the AC outlet, but if you are only using the battery, then this
power will be drawn from the battery... There's nothing wrong with your
battery and/or computer,"standby" mode, where a small amount of power is
consumed...

Ramy, jaws 11 has this problem, where the screen messes up when returning
from sleep mode. I've and I believe others have sent this bug report to
fs,
let's see what they do about it, if anything...
Regarding the windows not going to sleep, go to power management and set
the
sleep after time to never or however long you want the computer to wait.
Thirdly, yes, it is normal for your battery power to drin when the
computer
is in sleep or even hybernation mode, because it's still using a bit of
battery power. It uses more in slep mode than it does in hibernation, but
they both use some power, even when the laptop is completely off it uses
a
minimal amount of power...
HTH, D!J!X!
