| 189120 | 2003-11-04 06:32:00 | "Hibernate" is reasonably reliable for laptops, but can be a disaster on desktop hardware. Even major PC manufacturers have at times advised to use it on laptops only. I always do a full shutdown. Your PC will be obsolete before its killed with shutdown/restarts. |

| 189123 | 2003-11-04 08:47:00 | I don't particularly see how loading as many MB of data as you have RAM off the HDD can speed up Windows boot time... | agent (30) | ||
| 189124 | 2003-11-07 03:36:00 | i find hibernate is faster. i have 128mb ram and 800mb free hd space. as i have no hardware that didnt come with the pc apart from speakers i an all right :) | Megaman (344) | ||
