    Have a problem where every time I hibernate, at the point where the PC should switch off it start booting again.
    Running XP Service Pack 2.
    This is doing my head in and I can't find any help on the web.
    Anyone else seen this poblem?

    Hi , are u sure that in the power options ( control panel ) that it is Hibernate that it is going into ?.. ( as opposed to stand by) .. chances are that it is going in to stand by, cause as far as i know hibernate is disabled by default. on a laptop i was looking at u have to actually reboot in order to bring it out of stand by ( strange i know ) , but when hibernation was enabled ( and stand by set to "never" ) a simple press of the power button resumed windows , without the need to reboot.



    EDIT : sorry just seen u had a different problem than what i read first, however .. look at all the options in the power management , and try different settings, with a test after each one u change. Also have a look in the BIOS, depending on the make there will more than likely be options in there too.
