I'm using a home-grown application that uses an external USB I/O device as part of a lights-out unmanned infinite loop application. The problem arises when the PC is placed in hibernate mode. Upon restarting, the I/O device is not restored into a proper state, nor does the application detect any problem. The result of this is that the application is unable to properly communicate with the device. Is there any way to programatically determine when such an infinite appliation is "awakened" from a hibernate state, so that additional logic can be envoked to fix the problem (i.e. re-open its connection & initialization of the I/O card)? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Great! Works like a charm. Thanks for the assistance!

I'm using a home-grown 'lights-out' application (i.e. one that starts automatically and runs w/o user intervention) that opens a file located on a CD, then closes it thereafter as part of an infinite loop. The problem is: Whenever the CD is manually ejected from the system, I get a "no disk" dialog window (#32770) that requires user input ('continue', 'cancel' or 'try again') before the application will continue therafter. Is there any way to disable Windows from displaying this window? My program already takes the appropriate action based upon whether the CD is inserted or not. Thanks in advance for your help!
