After stumbling around the internet for over three hours last night, and after contacting intel, then, on their suggestion, contacting Creative, ATI and Promise Technologies, I found Sleeper.
It is the only program that will put my Windows XP into stand-by. Windows, itself, will not do this, which is apparently extremely common.
I am attempting to write an AutoHotKey script that enables D3, but when I execute the following, it goes into D3 then immediately wakes up:
sleeper -H -S0010 -E
Additonally, when I run Sleeper's GUI, it does allow entering D3, and stays in D3.
Another question: Can I just copy Sleeper.exe into the directory where the script is stored, or do I need all the additional cfg files, etc., to make it work properly?
I am very excited to get this working.
Thanks very much,
Matt

I read the readme, silly me for doing such a thing, and the following works fine:
Sleeper.exe -D 0 -S0010 -H -E
