    Hello everybody, I was wondering is there a way to disable Hibernation when using ePower??
    Just to make it clear, not to turn it off (I know how to do that) but to disable it so it doesn't take HDD space!

    I just installed 2GB of RAM and now hibernation takes 2GB of my system partition and I don't want that!!!

    I can disable Hibernation in Power Options when Empowering platform and ePower is not installed, but when I install it I can't go to Windows Power Options because Empowering platform is default program for power options then and I can't find an option for disabling Hibernation!!

    Is there a solution for my problem? :)

    Yes I know that, but I don't know how to disable it when using ePower!
    It is turned on by default and I don't want it!

    Yes, I uninstalled it because there is on other way to turn the Hibernating off!

    I have XP Home installed ;)

    I like it because you can swich screen brightness quickly and set CPU speed as you like!
    I don't know is there any other good program which can do this also?

    I used RMClock for a while but you can't set brightness with it!

    THANKS man, I didn't know this!

    This is all I need, full power all the time :)

    My lappy is on DC all the time and there is no need for 800Mhz clock, I like to have it on 1.6Ghz and RAM on 667Mhz all the time ;)


    @CMWelch
    Yes, it is :)
    I uninstalled after a very short time ;)
