Re: Question about Hibernation in Windows XP Home Edition

Thanks Robear Dyer. Though it didn't really solve my problem. I looked over

hibernation/stand by disappeared after I installed my Motorola Servicing
software. So I uninstalled it and that solved my hibernation issue. Thanks
anyway, much appreciated.
