This is caused by a third party oem software device or driver. Try uninstalling newer software to find out which program it might be. If you don't want to do this, try moving Windows to a different folder. One of these options will work for you.

some programs will not allow xp to go to standy or hibernate. check what programs are in the task bar. any new programs you've installed? try closing them then standby

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.
