    Hi all,

    I have a T100, that never seems to go into hibernate. It only shuts down the screen, but never goes into actual sleep. The screen powers up quickly. Hibernate is not even an option. Does anyone know how to get into the BIOS of these little tablets? TIA.

    Hibernate on Windows tablets is disabled by default. Instead, they lean on a connected standby mode, much like phones do.

    Here is a way to supposedly enable Hibernation.

    It is really frustrating that Apple has figured this out and Wablets have not. I can pick up an iPad a week later and it still powers up

    My T100TA I left untouched for over two weeks and it powered on without issue with little battery drain. Not sure what's going on with yours?

    did it hibernate? If mine is not connected to a wall plug it dies in about a day. And it takes forever to charge
