I have a client and she would like to have the Hibernate
button available without pressing the shift button.

any suggestions?

I haven't tried this but thought I'd pass it along anyway.

When you click “Turn Off Computer” on the Start menu, the
Hibernate button does not appear in Windows XP Service Pack 2
or in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005

Another approach would be to create a shortcut with the
following in the Target box.

%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll, SetSuspendState

I changed the icon to the one in System32\shell32.dll on the
bottom row that matches Turn Off Computer on the Start menu.
You can leave the shortcut on the Desktop or drag it into the
Quick Launch toolbar so it's right next to the Start button.

Good luck

If you can't get the hotfix from Microsoft, tell her to hit the
H key instead of Shift.
