I know that I had been using Hibernate w/Vista on my laptop a while back. And, at some point - the option disappeared. It was Weird. Turns out a Windows update Removed/Turned it off. I forget - but, it may have been a techie buddy of mine that told me I had to run a DOS command, if memory serves - to turn that 'feature' back on.

I had to hunt around to find out how to get "Hibernate" to show up in the power menu, guess I'll have to turn that off, too. Still takes about 1 minute to boot, even with that setting.
