Vista 64-bit Ultimate upgrade
I just recently upgraded my XPS M1530 to Vista 64-bit Ultimate and I no longer can go to hibernate mode I can only "sleep" or "shut down" is there a fix for this?
Thanks,
Marcos

If you run the command prompt as administrator, then type "powercfg -h on" it should return Hibernate to your list of choices.

marcoshid,
Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum.
Make Sure Power Management Options Are Correct
The Power Options Properties window appears.

I tried doing power -h on but nothing changed, the command prompt flased for a bried second
as for changing the power option to net be on always on I could find where to do that once I was already in power options. Do yall have any other way of doing it?
Thanks,
Marcos
