Hi,

I have Windows XP x64. I would like to be able to hibernate with the
computer this is installed on. When I look in Power Option Properties
there is no Hibernate tab.

I open up a command line window and type:

powercfg /hibernate on

and get the response:

Hibernation failed with the following error: The request is not
supported.
The following items are preventing hibernation on this system.
The system is running in PAE mode, and hibernation is not
allowed in PAE
mode.

Is there some way I can use a different mode other than PAE mode so I
can Hibernate this machine. I have 4Gb ram and a core duo processor.
This machine has an LSI megaRAID PCI card that has a battery on it to
keep it from losing data in a power cut could the drivers from this
make the machine go into PAE mode?

Thanks for any advice.

maybe this can be helpful:

Thanks for the reply.

I followed the advice here:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms791508.aspx

and added /nopae the boot.ini to:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Windo ws XP Professional
x64 Edition" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /nopae


and tried the cmd:

powercfg /hibernate on

and still get the response:


Hibernation failed with the following error: The request is not
supported.
The following items are preventing hibernation on this system.
The system is running in PAE mode, and hibernation is not
allowed in PAE
mode.


Thanks for any advice.

Try adding the /EXECUTE switch to boot.ini

Cheers
