For the last 2 days, if i get my latop to hibernate, it gets to the screen where it says 'Preparing to hibernate' and then it stays there, nothing happens. I had to take out the power cord, and it stayed on that screen till the battery ran out. How can I fix this? It has been hibernating fine for several months before this. I'm using win xp.

You might want to have a look at this Microsoft KB article entitled "How to troubleshoot hibernation and standby issues in Windows XP". I've not read much myself, but had a quick glance and it contains various suggestions that cover various possibilities - although it seems mostly aimed at problems coming out of hibernation rather than entering it, they may well be helpful anyway. Has anything changed on your laptop recently? For example:
It could be something in these sort of categories is somehow obstructing the hibernation process - in which case try unplugging anything new, stop or (temporarily) uninstall any new programs, and/or try a system restore to before when the problem started. If these activities stop the problem, you will then have to play the trial-and-error game by reconnecting devices and reinstalling software on at a time until you find out what is causing the problem. | |||
