    Hello..

    I'm having trouble.. comming out of hibernation.

    I searched the forum and found a thread that is very similar.. but unfortunately there was no solution. I think he said it better than I .. so I copied his words below from 2002.

    I usually end up with 2 browsers open Opera.. and Netscape. ( I prefer Opera.. but it dosent work well with my Gmail account.. so I end up opening netscape to read mail.. ) then.. if left idle.. (Ithink this is the correct term) it goes into hibernation.. and when I return.. and hit a key or mouse.. to stop the skreen saver.. and continue, it takes for ever.. to be able to resume.. the task at the computer.

    I dont remember this being a problem when I got the computer .. a dell w/512 ram.. cable internet connection.

    so this is my problem.. thanks for your help..

    Default excessive memory usage after hibernation
    I have windows XP with 1gig memory. I have Verizon DSL hookup. Problem is when it comes out of hibernation, the task manager shows all processes are like over 20 grand in memory usage. If i reboot evrything goes back to normal. The excessive usage doesn't seem to affect, or slow anything down. Any ideas?

    Turn off hibernation ...it can cause alot of problems ... right click your desktop, properties, screen saver, power, hibernation and uncheck it. Ok out.
