September 23, 2011Do you have the “Auto Hide” feature for the taskbar enabled? This may cause the hibernation to suspend. Disable it if it is enabled.
This happened to me after I updated to Windows 7 SP1 (it wouldn’t wake up at all after hibernation or sleep), I ended up having to update my drivers (Video card specifically) with Slim Drivers.
If Auto Hide is not enabled and your drivers are up to date your Hiberfil.sys may be corrupted. This most commonly happens when you shut down your computer during hibernation (you’re supposed to wake it up first, then shut it down). Follow these steps to disable, then re-enable hibernation. You must also enable power saving mode.Then open up an elevated command prompt (Start -> Search: “cmd.exe” right click on the result and chose “Run as administrator”). When the CMD appears, type in it “sfc /scannow” and wait for it to finish. If it finds any problems it will require that you insert your Windows 7 disk so it can restore the file.
If all else fails, make sure your power saving’s profile is properly configured.
