    Hi everybody...

    I own a FZ21S. Im having issues with power management options. When I press the power button to sleep the laptop, the screen shuts down, but the hard drive keeps working as well as the fan. It should turn off but it doesn't. The power indicator in front of the laptop keeps showing green and not ambar as it should. Need to fix this as I use the sleep mode quite often and in this condition the laptop just heats up too much. So I have to turn it off.

    This happened to my FZ-190 too a couple of times. I had to force power OFF the machine holding the power button. What display driver version are you using?
