You will need the proper graphics card driver for sleep to work. Back when I had W7 Beta on my T41, there were no ATI 7500 drivers for W7, or Vista. I don't know if that has changed, or not.
Collection = T500 - R400 - X300 - X200 - T61 (14" WXGA+) - T61 (14.1" SXGA+) - T60 (15" SXGA+) - X40 - T43p - T43 - T42p - A30P - 600E
