| 478749 | 2006-08-15 17:33:00 | Computer won't come out of hibernation. It gets past the place were it loads the saved hibernation information and stops. Asus MB, Athlon Processor, Windows XP pro, Boot Drive SATA raid Thanks |

| 478750 | 2006-08-15 18:25:00 | I've never had a problem with hibernation, but there is a message that says to press F8 for troubleshooting and startup options. Try that as soon as you see anything on your screen. | Vince (406) | ||
| 478751 | 2006-08-15 19:50:00 | I've already tried that. F8 get you to a command prompt, safemode and somethings that I don't remember. I couldn't find a way to trouble shoot it in safe mode. I'm wandering if it may have something to do with the fact that my operating system is on a SATA drive. I just found out that if I restart instantly it comes out of hibernation OK. If I wait a munite it won't. It sound a little strange to me. Maybe some residual power on something. |

| 478752 | 2006-08-16 07:02:00 | Do you have an nvidia graphics card? I have had S3 and hibernation troubles with a number of Geforce 6200 AGP cards. | BIFF (1) | ||
| 478753 | 2006-08-16 07:43:00 | Desktop hardware is very often intolerant of hibernation or standby modes. The modes were designed for laptop hardware in the main, it's a case of "if it works it's OK" for desktops, but in my experience its not been OK in the longer term. |

| 478755 | 2006-08-16 10:09:00 | Well, I am not surprised, since it is barely spring yet. :D You might want to check out this thread: forums.pcworld.co.nz Cheers :) |

| 478756 | 2006-08-16 16:28:00 | I do have a nvidia graphics card. No tv card. It's probably as you say. The hardware is intolerant of hibernation. JamesKan I'm checking out the thread, also you bring another question to mind. I live near a national forest in Florida and frequently see bears and I often wonder weather they hibernate when it doesn't get cold. Just something that I ponder. Thanks for all the help |

I live near a national forest in Florida and frequently see bears and I often wonder weather they hibernate when it doesn't get cold. Just something that I ponder. Not a heck of a lot of bears in NZ, so I doubt any of us locals could advise on their hibernating habits. It's also strange to hear of bears in Florida... I woulda thought the climate too warm for them. Or is your question just taking the p*** ? :thumbs: |
