    when i try to put the computer into the 'stand bt' or 'hibernate' modes nothing happens. i have tried using the 'FN + esc/F1' and by going in the start menu.

    Has anyone had this probelm before? any sugestions on how to fix it?

    Do you have hibernate enabled in the power settings?

    Can you just turn it off? How long are you gonna want it in hibernation?

    Yes, the hibernation is enabled.

    I dont always know how long it will be in Hib. mode. i usually use it during car rides to watch movies, or homework, and i want to be able to hibernate so i can stsart exactly where i left off.

    well sounds like something is not working correctly for sure. check your power options in the control panel.

    could it be that a power scheme is messing it up?

    Perhaps. Have you experimented with different power schemes? Also, have you reinstalled the operating system or done anything to your operating system recently? Has hibernation ever worked?
