In standby mode the computer power stays on but, certain elements such as
monitors are shut down to conserve power.
In hibernate mode all programs, statuses etc. are written to the hard drive
and then ALL power is shut down. When powering back on from hibernation, all
the programs, data, and status is restored and the computer resumes from
where it was. You can configure your computer to do either or do both. By
both, the computer will go to standby and then after a predetermined amount
of time (if not taken out of standby) hibernate.

StandBy-
With Standby, the system shuts down your monitor, hard drive, and other devices, but
maintains power to random access memory (RAM). Your open documents and applications
are stored in RAM as if your system were fully powered, so you can pick up where you
left off very quickly. Many newer laptops resume from Standby in less than two
seconds with Windows XP.
Windows XP includes an improved algorithm that tells your monitor, hard drive, and
other devices when to come out of Standby. It restores devices in the most efficient
order and, wherever possible, restores more than one device at the same time.
Hibernate-
In the same way, Windows XP helps your computer start faster when you use Hibernate.
This feature saves the contents of RAM to your hard disk in compressed form so you
can turn your laptop or desktop computer completely off. When you turn on the power,
your documents and applications are open just as you left them so you can start work
quickly.

Yes. You can use Power options - Control Panel > Power :

Hello, I always put my hp Pavillion zv5030 laptop in hibernation, but I don't
understand how to put it in standby. I am running Win XP Home SP2. It looks
like standby would be helpful for me. Do you still have to log in with
password after the standby mode? Thanks.

HP would be a good source for that information. As would the manual.
The settings should be in Control Panel -> Power Options -> Advanced TAB.
Depending on the system, you should be able to set the option to go into
Standby when the laptop lid is closed, and to come out of Standby when the
laptop lid is opened.
