hibernation problem

[Guest]

I have a problem in which my computer performs a desired hibernation, but
instead of powering off at the end, it powers off and then immediately powers
back on, as if it were a reboot. Can anyone please help me with this
problem?? I am up to date on all xp updates, mobo updates (asus A7V8X-X),
and have what i feel is a reliable A+GPB power supply. All bios
poweron/wakeon settings have been disabled as well as within windows. I have
no spyware/malware/adware detected on my computer from adaware, spybot, or
microsoft antispyware. I have no viruses/trojans/worms detected by norton
antivirus 2003 with current definitions. All ANY help wold be greatly
appreciated, and thanks in advance

It could be that it's doing a crash reboot. Is the automatic reboot
turned off in "System Recovery"? Have you tried Start, Help and Support,
"Hibernate Troubleshooting", a number of KB's are available.

Hi Bob, thanks for the response.
My automatic reboot on error is in fact disabled.
Additionally, I tried the search on hibernate troubleshooting, and actually
came up with 0 results, but that's alright.
Any additionally suggestions would be appreciated.

Don't know if this applies, but you can hit the KB up for more.

You cannot put your computer on standby or hibernate after you install
Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 1
