TP General - CD not suspending with timer
Applicable to: World-Wide
Symptom:
ThinkPad Systems with CD not suspending by timer
Configuration:
The attached problem has been observed with earlier ThinkPads and as the note indicates is also applicable to newer model ThinkPads with a CD-ROM drive.
Solution:
Windows 95/98 CD-ROM driver accesses the CD-ROM device every three seconds to detect CD-ROM insertion automatically. This prevents the ThinkPad from suspending by timer.
To allow the computer to suspend via the timer, the auto-insert notification must be disable. To disable it, follow the procedures outlined below.
