Press the power button, thats what I do when I want to come out
hibernation/sleep on both XP and Vista and resumes right at the log on
screen.

Well, hold down the power button as long as possible to do a cold boot,
start up the system, tap F8 just before it reaches the Windows boot screen,
on the list of startup options select 'Last Known Good Configuration'. If
that does not work, go back to the list of startup options and boot into
Safe Mode, and do a System Restore to an earlier point in time before you
started experiencing this problem.

If non of those don't work, you need to contact the manufacturer of the
laptop and get it checked out if its still under warranty.

fruitcake added some fruit and cake to this group in:If anything fails go for the cold turkey method:

Remove the plug of the power-unit of the laptop.
Remove the battery from the laptop.
Wait a few minutes
Place the battery into the laptop.
Plug-in the power-unit of the laptop.
Press the power button.

Now it should work.
This is the way I did successfully with my old HP 1500 laptop.
