Suspend & Resume Service. A service that runs under the LOCAL SYSTEM account to detect power changed events that occur when the computer suspends or resumes operation, such as when entering Sleep or Hibernate mode and resuming from these modes. It can be used to execute scripts or programs when either event occurs. It can also be used to initiate execution of tasks defined in Task Scheduler to start programs or processes that must run under a non-system account. This allows you to switch context when executing custom actions in response to suspend or resume events. The service was originally designed to reset the drivers for Windows Media Center, including drivers for TV cards that do not correctly reset when waking from Sleep or Hibernation. The scripts supplied to do this require the DevCon (device manager) utility that is available free from Microsoft. Includes source code for Visual Studio 2010.
