| | I always use the hibernate option it takes hard disk space as much as you have ram space. So let's say I have a 2gb of ram so to hibernate I need a minimum of 2Gb of disk space. But does this operation has any negative effects on my PC? |

I use Hibernation all the time. I rarely shut down my computer. Sometimes I leave it on for Folding @ Home distributed computing software. I can use Standby, Hibernation, Turn Off. I sometimes restart the system before putting it into Hibernation (dont know why, don't comment on). Yeah, this is a great tip for other users who don't know about this.

QUOTE(elevenmil @ Feb 23 2006, 01:06 AM) 
I've known of hybernation feature but rarely use it. Firstly I don't even shut off my computer. Secondly I hear hybernation hurts the computer, using hybernation over a long period of time shortens the lifespan of your computer.
Then again my statement regarding not using hybernation to protect lifespan can be voided as I'm sure leaving computer on isn't too healthy either...
...or maybe I'm just stupid altogether.
HOLY COW!!!! i never knew that. I'd better stop hibernating...  Don't want my system hurted...

Super-fast Start And Shutdown Windows (within Seconds)
Hello! experimenting after reading " speeding up computer with few tweaks" cause me problem. I don't know if I done it incorrectly. After reboot, I noticed that switching to other user's account won't work properly... You have to log off first before doing so. I did checked the "use fast users switching option" on the select log on/log off option but that won't work.Can you please help me resolve this problem. Thanks a lot. Jrnickm -NickM

Windows Explorer Crashes Consistantly [resolved]

Windows 98se Computer Has Messed Up And Won't Load

programs that were on the computer, started claiming that they were out of memory, and after he shut
it down, he went on it later only to find that he cannot load Windows because there is "Insufficient
Memory to Initialise" it! There is nothing wrong with the hard drive, however - I tried to use

Annoyingly Long Time For Shut Down
(14) To begin with , there are several reasons why windows takes an excessive amount of time for shut
down to be complete , in order to understand why this happens we must remember that windows os is
not a single program , but rather a collection of individual services.Each of these must be stopped
during shut down. Therefore any problem related to any of these may prolong the shut down process or
cause a crash . A potential cause for this problem is that windows contains an option to erase the
