By accident i clicked the damm sleep button on the keyboard does it go out of it when you reboot or do you have to do something.

I am on windows ME by the way.

Hit the Sleep Button again....I've tested it a few times..I thought any button would wake it up..I'm on XP so...also DJing now so can't test to see..lol

put a match under the power, sleep and wake buttons, it works great for me.

however if you turn of the power, or reset it, it doesn't sleep anymore.

some actually suggest yanking that key off of your keyboard to prevent accidentally pressing it...

1) Get off of ME
2) I've seen many computers (more specifically, all of the Dells at my school) that after hitting the sleep button, lock up. Reboot to fix is the only solution then.
