If Group Policy prevents you from changing hibernation settings, it's probably
not changeable by you. Do you mean that your hard drive is used for network
access by coworkers. as in a server? Maybe that's why GP prevents you from
putting your computer into hibernation. Why do you feel it necessary to
override GP?
