Prevent Standby "can not be rejected"

[Karlzbad]

The manual says:
In some situation Standby/Hibernation can not be rejected depending on how the Program has requested the Standby or Hibernation

Can you elaborate on that for me? What can cause the computer to go into standby with this enabled?

Hi,

if the other program has requested Standby (by sending SetSuspendState API function) with the ForceCritical parameter set to TRUE, then on Win2000, 2003 and XP the system suspends operation immediately...

If you want more infos, take a look at: SetSuspendState Function on MSDN
