| | Re: Windows Vista Silver hair, Yes you can delete the file using disk cleanup. You simply have to click on the box next to the hibernation option. -- -- John Barnett MVP Windows XP Associate Expert Windows Desktop Experience Web: http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org Web: http://vistasupport.mvps.org Web: http://www.silversurfer-guide.com The information in this mail/post is supplied "as is".

| | Re: Windows Vista The Vista Hibernation file is there in case you need to hibernate. Then it is not nessecary to wait for Vista loading all files that is needed to hibernate at the time you click hibernate. This file is aproximately the same size as your pagefile.
