I do ot remember seeing the original thread but I know that there is a
KNOWN problem with 760's (E and ED) with locking up when you come out
of suspend or hibernation mode if you have a Modem in the PCMCIA slot
or you do not use the IBM PCIC driver.

First thing to try is to make sure that the IBM driver is installed
(check device manager in system properties). If not you need to
change the driver to the IBM one.

If the IBM driver is installed you will need to remember to remove the
MODEM from the PCMCIA slot BEFORE you go into suspend.

I have an open call with IBM on this and I hope that a fix is
forthcoming.

I hope this helps!!!

How are your power options set? This is pretty weird; I never had
this happen
with mine. Are you running Win95 APM with current TP utilities?

It's actually easier than that. If it's a Dock II, hit the catch
under the
pinhole on the left side, pull the slider lever, and take it out.
