    You may need to edit your power options. For example in vista go to the bottom right of you taskbar and single click the battery icon.

    Click on:
    -more power options
    -change plan settings
    -change advanced power settings (under the plan you use).

    Then change the settings under 'power buttons and lid' to your liking.

    If this does not work then it could be a driver issue so try something like the official nvidia 179.28 for notebooks or a driver from http://www.laptopvideo2go.com

    My M860TU has started to do that as well. I have it set to sleep upon the lid closing however it fails to do so anymore.

    if youve updated your bios lately this could have caused the problem.
