Mike, Unable to Hibernate

Thanks Mike, I looked for the file "nohiber.txt", still unable to find it.
Can this problem be fixed?

Only when you find the file and have read its contents and therefore know
why your system won't hibernate.

Hi,
You might also search for susfail.txt in C:\WINDOWS but it may show useless
information such as
"Your computer could not Suspend or Hibernate,
because a device vetoed the Suspend or Hibernate request. "

Go to http://support.microsoft.com/search/?adv=1&spid=6519 and put standby
or hibernate in the search field.

[opinion] Standby/hibernate problems can be very difficult to resolve on
desktop systems. It may not be worth the trouble. ;-)

Don,
Thanks, I found that file. You were right, it was useless to me. I keep
troubleshooting, but unable to find out what the problem is. The computer
will not hibernate but it will, "standby".
My desire to "hibernate" was for the benefit of returning to windows from my
last sessions. As you suggested, it is proving to be more trouble than its
worth.

Thanks again.

How much RAM do you have installed?

MS KB 296773 - "Computer May Not Hibernate with More Than 192 MB of
Memory" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=296773). This makes reference
to an updated file vmm.vxd. Contact Microsoft, explain the problem, and
mention 296773 and you should be given details of how to obtain the patch
and the password of the day. Note that there should be no support charge
for this call other than for any telecom charges incurred in ringing
Microsoft.
