Win2k cannot handle all hibernation events. It handles the lid-close event,
the battery low event and perhaps some others, but there are events which
are not handled by Win2k, e.g transition from suspend to hibernate because
of low battery. I have not forced the overheat event, but since there is a
temperature gauge displayed within Win2k, it could handle this!

Consider also the following situation: You boot DOS from a floppy and you
close the lid - it hibernates and the data around 8GB is gone!

So I would strongly recommend to leave the neccessary space free. See my and
other recent postings for the procedure to find out the corect location on a
big HD.

regards
Gerhard
