    Default 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.

    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 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.
