Click Start, and then click Shut Down.
In the "What do you want the computer to do"
drop-down list, click Hibernate.

Note: Make sure Hibernation is enabled in the Power Options
applet located in your Control Panel.

After you click "turn off the computer" you get another screen with the
three selections you mentioned above. On my XP Home I then hold down the
shift key and the Stand By selection changes to Hibernate -- which you
select while still holding the shift key down. See if this works

Roy, when you see "Hibernate" -- click on hibernate NOT the turn off
