Turning Hibernation On or Off Hibernation is automatically turned on when you first set up your computer. In order for Hibernation to work, it must allocate space on your hard drive equal to the amount of RAM installed. To free up this disk space, you can click the Hibernation tab in Power Properties and turn off Hibernation. However, Compaq does not recommend this, because it could result in lost data. CAUTION: Turning off Hibernation is not recommended. If the computer reaches a low-battery condition and Hibernation is turned off, unsaved information is lost. When you restart the computer, the system first upgrades your memory, then should automatically allocate or update your computer's disk space to adjust to the new amount of memory. However, if you experience problems with Hibernation after upgrading your memory, run the Power Conservation utility and click the Hibernation tab to reset the system memory. Managing Power 5-19

Turning Hibernation On or Off
Hibernation is automatically turned on when you first set up your
computer. In order for Hibernation to work, it must allocate space
on your hard drive equal to the amount of RAM installed. To free
up this disk space, you can click the Hibernation tab in Power
Properties and turn off Hibernation. However, Compaq does not
recommend this, because it could result in lost data.
CAUTION:
Turning off Hibernation is not recommended. If the
computer reaches a low-battery condition and Hibernation is turned
off, unsaved information is lost.
When you restart the computer, the system first upgrades your
memory, then should automatically allocate or update your
computer’s disk space to adjust to the new amount of memory.
However, if you experience problems with Hibernation after
upgrading your memory, run the Power Conservation utility and
click the Hibernation tab to reset the system memory.
