Got me 2Gb RAM - Bye bye Hibernate

Hi folk,

I upgraded my SZ from 2x512mb chips to 2x1Gb chips and all is well. The fingerprint scanner even reads my fingers. What magic. However, I cannot hibernate...

This link describes someone elses exact error message. Its the same one I get (API). I don't fancy a call to M$, so has anyone got a link to the HotFix?

Cheers, z.

Has no one else seen this annoyance?

I forgot to meantion that once this happens its impossible to enter hibernate mode anymore unless I reboot.

 

Here you go.

That seems to be a hit or miss fix

The hibernate file is created originally with the 1GB of ram. That file will not work once 2 Gb is installed. I'm not exactly sure of the procedure, but you need to disable hibernate, delete the file, the re-enable hibernate so it can re-create the file for the 2Gb of ram.

 

Just apply that fix. You will not see BSoD because of hibernate again.

Cheers,

I installed patch and the problem went away. Cheers for the link.

 

i tried the patch mentioned and the error message was that it wont work with service packs installed what to do

 

I can hybernate with my 2GB since the day I installed them, never had a problem. It takes quite some time though to read/write the 2GB file.

How large is your hiberfil.sys file? Could you check that please.

 

here is the thing i cant find that file. i did a search and included that file name and it didn't show up. (i included hidden files)

 

ok here is the patch for sp2 the other doesn't work. this stuff should be simpler
