Hibernating problem

WXP SP2 refuses to come out of hibernation. Four other computers with
same set up, no problem.
Has been suggested that maybe a missing or corrupt file. Is there a way
to re-install WXP using the installation disk without loosing programs?
Many thanks for any suggestions...
 
How it refuses (Error message, no activity, hang ) ?
Try to turn off hibernation and turning it on again.
To do this :
+Click Start - Run
+Type powercfg.cpl
+Click OK
+Go to Hibernate tab
+Uncheck the box "Enable Hibernation" > Click Apply
+Tick the box again > Hit OK

Thanks Ayush,
Tried disabling Hibernation, cold reboot then enabled Hibernation.
Hibernated ok but on restart, black screen says:
The system could not be restarted from its previous location due to
read failure.
[ Detele resoration data and proceed to system boot menu ]
Pressing Enter to accept, it boots normally.
 
Thanks Anando,
Am using a Nvidia GeForce2 with latest drivers.
Followed the troubleshooting link and in conclusion, I have had no
problems
hibernating for nearly a year so this is a new issue and computer
basically works
perfectly in every other way.

I will watch for further posts and hope someone can figure a solution.

Many thanks...
 
One further comment, I have selected that the computer goes into Stand
By on
pressing the power button. The Stand By feature works prefectly.

Just having problems with coming out of Hibernation. :)
 
All computers use 256 MB RAM.
I mentioned before that I had 4 computers all using WXP SP2
and the only difference between the others and this computer
is the other three are using 4.3 Gig Hard Drives and this
one is using a 40 Gig Hard Drive. This one using the 40 Gig
is the only one with the hibernation problem.

Many thanks for any suggestions...
