SYMPTOMS
When you are using a Windows 2000-based computer and the computer attempts to enter hibernate or standby, you may receive the following error message:
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if a program installs a kernel-mode driver that attaches itself to the standard keyboard driver (I8042prt.sys). Examples of programs that exhibit this behavior include:
- Pgpdisk 6.02 and 6.5 (installs Pgpmemlock.sys and Pgpdisk.sys drivers)
- Adobe Type Manager 4.0 (installs the Atmhelpr.sys driver)
RESOLUTION
To workaround this issue, uninstall the offending program and reboot the system.
To resolve the issue contact the manufacturer to inquire about obtaining an updated version of the product that is designed for Windows 2000.
MORE INFORMATION
The error message indicates that the program installed a kernel-mode driver that attaches itself to the keyboard driver and does not support Plug and Play I/O request packets (IRPs).
