Hibernation Issues

[Brian Mangiaracina]

Running a Lenovo Thinkpad (T43) with Vista Ultimate whose power management
was working fine until recently.
When I use hibernate or hybrid sleep the system appears to shutdown then
instantly resumes. I've gone through a host of diagnostic steps but haven't
yet resolved the issue. I have all devices capable of waking the system
disabled. powercfg -devicequery wake_armed returns nothing. Anyone else
experience this behavior? Any resolutions? I should note that sleep mode
works as expected. Only when I attempt to use hibernation or hybrid sleep
does it fail. Historically hibernation and resume have worked well.

Yeah, thanks, unfortunately been there done that. As a matter of fact, this
didn't start happening until after application of those patches. I've tried
removing them but there was no change. At this point I'm still unable to use
hibernation or hybrid sleep on this book while standard sleep mode works
fine.
