August,

Since I think it was You who mentioned that I should try Hibernating my
XP computer instead of Shutting It Down, I thought I'd send my comments
to You.

A couple of times last week when I pressed the power button to wake up
the computer I noticed that the monitor stayed dark for a real long time
after the Hibernation restore bar chart got finished.

I think I found out why that happened.

Last week I turned the monitor off just after I pressed the Power
button on the computer, while the Hibernating process was being done.

I suppose the setting for the Video wasn't available to be put in the
hiberfil.sys file so that is why nothing showed up on the monitor for a
long time.

Yesterday and today I made sure that the power light on the computer was
out after telling it to Hibernate, and then I turned the monitor off as
I always have done in the past, and when I wanted to use the computer
the next time everything showed up on the monitor as it should have.

The trouble(s) I cause myself.

End of report.
