    Default Hibernate?

    Did M$ kill off the ability to hibernate XP machines? This last update really ****ed over a lot of things... to lock the PC when the screensaver comes on it HAS to go to the welcome screen... it looks like I can no longer hibernate my PC... gah. They're pissing me off. Idiots. Everyone's making everything idiot proof by disabling all the features. Screw you M$ update. I'm not using you any more.

    You have to go into control panel and modify the Power options. it's still there. may require a reboot to enable it.

    or, you can:

    1: Click Start and Shut Down,

    2: Point the cursor over the standby button and press the shift key

    3: A new hibernation button appears: click it while still holding the shift key: voila your PC will hibernate.

    Well college isn't a cakewalk, but it is what you make of it as is most things in life. You just have to learn to make the best of otherwise bad or normal circumstances. As for M$, you're screwed.

    Microsoft haven't disabled the Hibernation feature.

    Goto Control Panel
    Goto Power Option
    Click on the Hibernate tab
    Makes sure Hibernation is enabled.

    I'll doublecheck the power settings.

    It's just that I keep getting BS for computer classes. I am DONE with those. Stupid M$ office crap. I mean, the tutorial book we got doesn't explain jack ****. The Word tutorials were great but everything else makes no sense and they skip steps. AND the teacher is retarded and told us to submit the wrong file so I got a ****ing FIVE on PowerPoint... god. I also have an old guy with PMS for a writing teacher. Ah well. I think I'll take off next semester and just work.

    Here's a number symbol for you to copy/paste: #

    Happy Christmahanakwanzakuh.
