Hibernate is disappeared and not reconfigurable...

[Guest]

Hi,
after 5 weeks of working normally with final Windows Vista (German version),
the Hibernate Mode (in German: Ruhezustand) was disappeared. I want to
re-activate the hibernate mode but there is no button available for that. If
I type "Ruhezustand" in the help mode, then I found a short text about
activating and de-activating the hibernate mode and a link to the control
panel part power options (in German: Energieoptionen). But there is no button!
What can I do or where can I re-activate the hibernate mode?

Thx in advance for help.
rgds,
Andreas

I'm so sorry, but I have found another discussion thread about this problem.
The command "powercfg -H ON" was successful!

Hello. This is common if you're run Disk Cleanup, which has an option to
delete the hiberfil.sys which disables hibernate. It caught me out on one
of my machines.

To re-enable it type cmd on the start search and press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER,
this will run it with full privileges, or right click on it and run as an
administrator.

Then type 'powercfg -h on' and press enter.

That should re-enable hibernate, although you may need to reboot to have all
the options like hybrid sleep in the Control Panel.
