I've always had great success with W2K's hibernation... or at least with whatever the default hibernation function was after W2K installation. I'm pretty sure it was W2Ks. Philip was always writing about just how well W2K's hibernation function worked. Instead of shutting down a W2K installation on a Libby, hibernating, and then waking up from hibernation always goes much faster than a full cold boot to W2K. > How I turn off Hibernation and suspend in windows (using again BIOS > hibernation with Bios animation) > Some websites say BIOS hibernation (16bits) its worse than windows.. Can't help there. > Whats diference in BIOS setup: BOOT, HIBERNATION, RESUME modes ? > Whats RESET HOLE in right side of librettos do ? The hole provides access to the reboot switch. When the system freezes and won't shut down, press a pen into the hole to activate the reset switch. Sometimes it even works! ;-P (Windows is problematic with this at times) I'm not clear on the BIOS settings for BOOT, HIBERNATION, & RESUME. All I know is that hibernation puts the system into a full power down where data for the booted session is written to the hard drive. The system can then wake up to the same condition it was in before hibernating. Resume only writes the data to RAM, and doesn't power the system down totally. Just what those BIOS settings do I'm not sure of. But I'd assume they would do bassically what I outlined above. Matt __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
