Vostro 5471 missing Sleep (Standby) Indicator?
Hi, does the Vostro 5471 have any light indicator to show that the laptop is in sleep(standby mode)? I noticed mine doesn't have one, only a light to show if it's charging or not. It's rather frustrating that I can't know if I had put my Vostro 5471 to sleep until i press the power button.

- Hi Jesse, I am just frustrated to unable to know my laptop is in sleep mode without opening the lid and pressing the keyboard. There are many laptops out there that have a standby LED (breathing LED while in standby), this may be a small feature, but it's a really useful and convenient way for user to know what state is their PC in without interacting with it. I hope that Dell could implement such useful feature some day. Thanks.

bhyap91,
There is no sleep mode light indicator on the system. You can go into the power and sleep settings and change the settings to meet your criteria to put the system to sleep. Once in the power and sleep section you can click the Advanced Power Settings. From there click the left side column options and change the settings to when you need the computer to sleep. Do this for each option.
