| Guest | Change Shutdown Options? Is there a way to change the default option when you click shutdown? Mine always defaults to "Sleep", and this is pretty useless since I've disabled hibernation. XP as I recall would default to whatever you picked last... thanks, Dave |

Hybrid sleep will disappear -- But all Hybrid sleep does is prepares the harddrive for hibernation, while putting the system into sleep mode. Once in sleep mode, the system can simply power off and recover as though it were hibernated. This is really a "hibernate-lite" -- Insert something clever here. |

| Guest | Re: Change Shutdown Options? Excuse my obtuseness, but does this mean that "hybrid sleep" really does nothing worthwhile unless it is used as a prelude to full hibernation?

As I understand it, that's part of it -- It helps in two basic cases: 1) Your computer is asleep, and wants to hibernate instead. 2) Your computer is asleep, and suffers a power failure, user thinks it's off and unplugs it, or some other unexpected-to-your-OS event. -- Insert something clever here. |
