Can HP dv2715nr hibernate instead of putting it on sleep mode?

I came across a hp pavilion dv 6000which has the option of hibernating, on my dv2715nr I only have the option of putting it on sleep mode. Hibernating saves the energy used by the pc and I'd prefer using it so is it possible for my computer to have that feature?

Hi,

It sounds like the hibernate feature is missing from the power options list. Click on start button, select shut down, and then hold shif or ctrl and stand by should change to hibernate.


Let me know how you get on.


Regards.

I can't get hp elitebook 8530p out of hibernate mode

The hibernate is one of the worst idea's that microsoft came up with, used long enough it will corrupt windows. If you can get it to come out of hibernate mode, go into power options and uncheck hibernate box and click apply. If you are unsuccessfull you will need to do a complete recovery of windows operational system.

How can I enable hibernation on my HP Mini 5101?

Hello,

Welcome to FixYa, the world's largest product support community.

Generally all Windows OS has an option for sleep & hibernate.

Windows XP Users
  • Sleep Mode
By letting your computer idle for a period of time, i.e. not moving the mouse/touchpad, or not pressing any keys except when playing a video, the screen or desktop monitor will go dark. You can resume the computer by moving the mouse/touchpad or by pressing any key on the keyboard.
  • Hibernation or Standby mode
Click Start, click on Turn Off Computer, then click Stand By.

Windows VISTA/Windows 7 Users

To put Windows VISTA & Windows 7 in Sleep or in Hibernation, the steps basically the same. First click Start, then click the small arrow head located to the right of the Start Menu, then you click Sleep or Hibernate.

Can HP dv2715nr hibernate instead of being put on sleep mode?

  • Hi. "Yes," but putting the computer in the Hibernation State, can use up to 400MB of memory, and can be very "unstable to the system." You Can change the "Sleep, Hibernation, Wake-up...from the Start search window, Type Power, to open the Power Options. "If the solution helped, "Rating it is appreciated, thanks."

Cannot wake up computer after putting it to sleep -- HP Pavilion -- I have pressed every concievable key combination ? Computer may be waking, but monitor is blank.

I rebuild these systems all the time and I have to tell you I just shut off the hibernation which is what the problem is. Go to power options in the control panel and click the hibernation tab and uncheck the box. That way you save the disk space and the aggravation of trying to wake up the system. Let the computer go into standby if you want but you really need to turn off the hibernation...

Pavilion Dv1000 monitor won't show anything

Power management lets you reduce your Notebook power consumption. Your Notebook has two power management modes:
  • Hibernation is an energy-saving feature and safeguard that saves information to the hard drive, then turns off your Notebook. When you resume from Hibernation, your information returns to the screen where you were previously working. Your Notebook hibernates when the Power button is pressed, when the battery has little power left, or when your Notebook (operating on battery power) is in Sleep mode for more than one hour.
  • Sleep, also called Standby, is an energy-saving feature that reduces power to system components that are not being used. When Sleep is initiated, your information is saved in Random Access Memory (RAM), and the screen is cleared. Your Notebook is still on, but the display is blank. When you resume from Suspend, your information returns to the screen where you were previously working.
Automatically put your notebook into hibernation Windows can automatically put your computer into Hibernate mode after a specified period of inactivity. Or Windows can detect when your batteries are running low, and then automatically put your computer in Hibernate mode to save your work before the battery fails. NOTE: Using Power Options in Control Panel, you can adjust any power management option that your notebook's unique hardware configuration supports. Because these options may vary widely from computer to computer, the options described may differ from what you see. Power Options automatically detects what is available on your computer and shows you only the options that you can control. To automatically put your computer into hibernation:
  1. In Category view, click Start , click Control Panel , click Performance and Maintenance , and then click Power Options . In Classic view, click Start , click Control Panel , and then click the Power Options icon.
  2. Click the Hibernate tab, select the Enable hibernate support check box, and then click Apply . Figure 1: Enable hibernation check box c00035872.gif
  3. Click the Power Schemes tab, and then select a time period in System hibernates. Your computer hibernates after it has been idle for the specified amount of time.
Manually put your notebook into hibernation This feature is available only on notebooks with the Windows XP operating system installed.
  1. In Category view, click Start , click Control Panel , click Performance and Maintenance , and then click Power Options . In Classic view, click Start , click Control Panel , and then click the Power Options icon.
  2. Click the Hibernate tab, and then select the Enable hibernate support check box. NOTE: If the Hibernate tab is not available, your computer does not support this feature.
  3. Click OK to close the Power Options dialog box.
  4. Click Start , and then click Turn Off Computer . In the Turn off computer dialog box, hold down the Shift key. The Stand By button will change to Hibernate. Click Hibernate .
