WXP SP2 refuses to come out of hibernation. Four other computers with
same set up, no problem.
Has been suggested that maybe a missing or corrupt file. Is there a way
to re-install WXP using the installation disk without loosing programs?
Many thanks for any suggestions...

How it refuses (Error message, no activity, hang ) ?
Try to turn off hibernation and turning it on again.
To do this :
+Click Start - Run
+Type powercfg.cpl
+Click OK
+Go to Hibernate tab
+Uncheck the box "Enable Hibernation" > Click Apply
+Tick the box again > Hit OK

Usually the video card drivers do cause issues with hibernation. Make sure
that the video card drivers are up to date on the problematic machine.

Thanks Ayush,
Tried disabling Hibernation, cold reboot then enabled Hibernation.
Hibernated ok but on restart, black screen says:
The system could not be restarted from its previous location due to
read failure.
[ Detele resoration data and proceed to system boot menu ]
Pressing Enter to accept, it boots normally.

Thanks Anando,
Am using a Nvidia GeForce2 with latest drivers.
Followed the troubleshooting link and in conclusion, I have had no
problems
hibernating for nearly a year so this is a new issue and computer
basically works
perfectly in every other way.

I will watch for further posts and hope someone can figure a solution.

Many thanks...

One further comment, I have selected that the computer goes into Stand
By on
pressing the power button. The Stand By feature works prefectly.

Just having problems with coming out of Hibernation. :)

How much RAM do you have ? There is a hotfix available for those who
have more than 1 GB.
