    I just upgraded my Webbook to Windows 7; Sleeps does not seem to be an available option, only Hibernate. Any way around this?

    After upgrading to Win 7 did you update the chipset, etc drivers?

    It was a clean install so, obviously, everything was new.

    Chipset drivers must be installed independently of the OS - they are not installed by the OS and differ according to the chips on the motherboard.

    Windows will install default drivers for some items - these are not necessarily the best.

    Lok on the Elonex website for drivers for your model.
