Solve : Cannot hibernate/sleep?

Answer»

This button is grey... So I can't HIBERNATE or sleep.Try setting the power options for your HD & display to power down after a defined period of inactivity. If that suits your needs, it's an EXCELLENT alternative and should work just fine.After the time is elapsed, the computer do nothing.I don't understand what you mean.

Seem like they've set it up and it does not work
Is it a Laptop or Desktop and what OS?

Make sure to click "Apply". It is also worth mentioning on how you set this power options for a CLEARER view.the answers are:

1. Desktop computer with french version of windows XP Édition familiale (family edition).
2. The buttons is unavaillable, grey colored (normally, it is yellow) and I can't click on it.
3. I ALWAYS click on apply before clicking on ok.Quote from: jason2074 on March 24, 2011, 01:23:29 AM

Start -> Control Panel -> Power Options -> Hibernate

Check the "Enable Hibernation" box.

BTW, I don't think you can hibernate from Welcome screen... log in to an account, then do Start -> Shut Down [hold down SHIFT] -> [Standby now Hibernate]It isn't a Windows question. I tried with other OSes (BSD, 3.11, Chrome, XP, 98) and it won't work.Dear Fleexy,

Were you able to figure out your problem with the hibernation thing. If not I would be glad to help you.


Denis Hey! I found the solution of this problem and I was right about that it isn't a Windows questions...
There are states in the ACPI settings and with the S1 state, hibernating isn't available.
You must set it in S3 state.
Thanks anyway!
