In Srv 2008 (R2), you can use it only from Logon Screen…
Just press CTRL + ALT + DEL and then click the arrow on a shut down button and select “Sleep”… 😉

Or, if you have a laptop, it probably has a special key combination (like Fn+F4 or something) that activates sleep mode. You might have to configure it in power scheme settings first, though.

How to configure power scheme?
I’ve tried, but I could not find Sleep or Standby in power scheme.

Go to Power Options (either from the control panel, or type it into the Start menu search box), and in the left-hand column click on “Choose what the power buttons do”. From there you can set the action for pressing the Sleep button.

Edit: do you have Hyper-V installed? If I recall correctly, Hyper-V disables sleep mode.

Another great way to instantly access sleep mode is to add a system gadegt to your sidebar. If you would like a system gadget see my post viewtopic.php?f=21&t=1033. Its a free gadget with tons of options and give the ability to launch your screensaver, run, control panel, logoff, sleep, shutdown, etc all from your desktop.
