Cannot hibernate

[Hans]

Hey, ever since I installed Tiny Personal Firewall, I have not been able to
hibernate (XP Home SP2). It worked when I shut down the firewall, but this
was after only being online for a little while. After having the PC running
for a fair chunk of time that does not work. I searched for solutions, and
found various responses, however I thought I would still post. I read about
one case where Nero is involved, and I do have Nero, but it only started
happening after installing TPF. I tried deleting the hibernation file, but
that did not work either. Any input would be appreciated! Thanks.

try setting your swap file with a minimum of 2 and max of maybe 1300.
possible that the hibernation has no room to engage a hibernation space after
your recent installl

If you've EVER had hibernate actually work correctly, count yourself
lucky


Windows hibernate has been plagued with problems ever since it was
added. I've had more crashes trying to use it in the past.


Good luck with this, I suggest you stop using it altogether, but perhaps
one of the MVP types here will have a more useful (to you) suggestion.
