    I've been having a weird issue in that I can't use the keyboard combination to put the computer to sleep. I have to manually go through the start menu, and when I do it sleeps fine. I'm using the latest official Nvidia whql driver but I've tried several others including the stock gateway and it doesn't work with any of them. All of the other hotkeys, such as turning off lights and activating bluetooth, work just fine. Has anyone had this problem and/or found a solution?

    Thanks.

    Which OS are you currently using?... might have to do with that or your key might be broken
