When our computer hibernates, it stores all the memory content to the hard disk and then shuts down the computer. Hibernation will use as much disk space as we have RAM installed on our machine.

Before you start Objectives: learn how to configure power options on XP machine Prerequisites: you should read about Power Options in general first. Key terms: power, scheme, option, acpi, conserve, advanced, battery Power Schemes Windows XP introduced Power schemes which we can use to quickly set the appropriate power options. Example Configuration We can change the way that our computer uses power.

Under your Power Options, do you have a Hibernate tab or do you not and and if you do, are you able to check the box to Enable hibernation just as a test. XP has a default user profile and when you create a new user like when you install XP , that generic user profile is copied to create the profile for the new user as a starting point. Method 1 copies that supposedly "good" power scheme information from the default user profile to your profile.
Why don't you temporarily create a new user and see how things look for the new user. That will also copy the default user profile as a starting point for the new user just created. If things look good for the new user and do not look good for your user then the problem is with your user profile.
If you still have the same problem with the new user, then you probably have some other problem that afflicts all users - even a new user so it is not specific just to your profile.
You can just delete the new user when you are done testing. I can't imagine how uninstalling FreeCell could cause this problem, but Method 1 of the KB article usually works - unless there is some other problem. Are you sure nothing else changed?
For video driver information, expand the Components, click Display, click Edit, Select All, Copy and then paste the information back here. There will be some personal information like System Name and User Name , and whatever appears to be private information to you, just delete it from the pasted information. In reply to A. User's post on March 3, Thank you for responding so quickly. I was able to change back all settings such as display schemes but not power options.
Tried other directories but no luck. In reply to voodoo os's post on March 3, FYI: A friend took a look at my laptop and figured out that the lenovo power options software had somehow over ridden the windows power scheme. I'm not sure which driver to fix. I would start by rolling back any driver that you know you have updated recently. The link Pete gave you in thread 4 mentioned "graphics adapter" and previous link given mentions several specific adapters known to have acpi problems.
The adapter and acpi related problems are not limited to these though. The mere fact that you have been using either standby or hibernate can even be the root of your problem. File corruption or data lost to lost cache when wakeup bloopers happen are not unknown. If it does not support or respond well to acpi or apm, it may have disabled the options via a patch or update as a way of protecting it's drivers or your computer from future possible corruption.
Have you recently installed, added, updated or had problems with devices? I'm sure you've noticed the word "experiment" often when a check has been suggested. That is because once your sure all apm or acpi related dynamics are supported, recognized properally and loaded, and settings are as they should be, experimenting is what ya' got to do. You just have to learn, via "homework ", what experiments are safe and reversible. How to do them and reverse them.
Used copy method to recover from this but it has left me with acpi problem confusion. In Device Manager under the main "computer" list and in the category "computer" I have two devices listed, "Standard Computer" and "acpi Uniprocessor pc ".
I assume upon the replacing of and reloading of devices by hal, it was decided that my computer was a standard rather than acpi compliant and made changes accordingly.
