Re: SP3 "resume from hibernation" problem

A couple of days ago my 2nd PC, after "resume from hibernation" just sat at the black screen - the one with "Press F8 to delete restoration data", (after the long progress bar had travelled from left to right at the bottom of the screen), and I had to hold the power button in and force it to switch off.
Same thing now on my main PC today !

...so it looks to me like hibernation is now, no longer working properly after SP3 :-) ...or should that be :-(

...I wonder if there'll be a patch soon, to fix what was not broken, and got broken with SP3 ?

For future reference, the idea is to shun MS's updates for some period after release. The more major the update and the more "improvements" they claim the longer you need to avoid it. A service pack probably needs at least a month to fester in public before you even think about trying it. MS's alpha and beta testing, even if you assume good intentions on their part, have a long track record of missing relatively major problems.
