Guest J Srinivas Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 It is known to all that in Stand by mode.. Every thing except RAM turns off. So In this a kepboard or mouse activates system again. Where as in Hiberbate mode Every thing including RAM gets saved to the Hard Disk. And the system Shuts Down. My question is When the system is restarted in hibernate mode.. What happens to the Saved content. Will the system erases all the saved content it saved in the process. If not where it is stored. Can be deleted manually.
Guest someone Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 Re: Hibernation.. Standby retains the contents of memory in RAM instead of saving it, allowing for very fast restoration by a quick press of the power key, pressing a key, or moving the mouse. Hibernation saves the contents of memory to the hard drive and performs a system shutdown. Upon reboot, the system is restored to its state at the moment of hibernation.

Guest ernie Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Re: Hibernation.. C:\hiberfil.sys is the hidden, system file, I don't know if it can be deleted in Windows. Maybe switching off the ability to hibernate removes it? HTH, ern.

Maybe switching off the ability to hibernate removes it? That's correct. That's how you remove it. > "someone" <someone@somewhere.com> wrote in message > news:%23bSCSgw9HHA.1184@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > > Standby retains the contents of memory in RAM instead of saving it, > allowing > > for very fast restoration by a quick press of the power key, pressing a > key, > > or moving the mouse.
