Re: Endless Preparing to Hibernate

Derek

How large is your C drive / partition and how much free space is there?

How much RAM?

What are the possible reasons for this hang-up? How can I find out
what is causing this problem? Could it be anything to do with the
systems being networked with a third system (XP Home and this does
not arise on that system).

Occasionally the system may, after a long time, e.g., some hours,
close down and appear to have hibernated but in these cases the
resume is nearly always unsuccessful and a restart is needed.
