My Tablet PC takes forever to hibernate?Dave, Windows XP hibernation takes an extremely long time, ten minutes or longer, to get to full hibernation. What is up? What can I do? I'm using a Toshiba M200 Tablet PC with 1GB of RAM. Everything was fine when I received it used off eBay. Since then, I've reimaged the HDD and then resized the HDD from 60 gb to 25 gb. I don't know if this is when the problem started, but it seems a likely candidate. That can be a very frustrating situation: in modern times we want everything to happen immediately, and when it comes to laptops sleeping or waking up, even 3-4 seconds seems like forever, so I'm quite impressed that you have the patience to wait ten minutes for your tablet to hibernate! Digging around on the Microsoft site, I did find that there's a reported problem with Tablet PC hibernation and 1GB of memory, actually. Of course, the Microsoft article also says that you can have hibernation problems if you have "multiple processes that create a high-stress condition". Who knew that our computers could get stressed?! Anyway, the solution is apparently to apply Service Pack 2, which should be pretty straightforward. I have written extensively about installing SP2 on your Windows system, but I'll specifically highlight How can I safely upgrade to Service Pack 2? Please install SP2 and come back to let us know whether your Tablet PC is running smoothly again or not. And good luck! Thanks to Tommy Martin for his help with this puzzle.

hi :D i've found the source of problem... the problem because you have disabled disk write cache on your hdd... I have an HP TC1100 Tablet PC. I have been having problems with it not shutting down without holding the power button. More importantly, it just recently stopped allowing my Verizon Aircard to access the internet. When looking at the internet settings, the options pertaining to internet setup are greyed out. Can you direct me to the proper settings to have it recognize and function with my card. The built in wireless capabilities function okay. Thanks, Vince Posted by: Vince at October 25, 2008 8:05 AMI have something to say, now that you mention it, but ...
I do have a comment, now that you mention it!
