You use a computer that is running Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2), Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005, or Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. When you try to put the computer in hibernation, the computer occasionally does not hibernate.
When this problem occurs, you receive an error message that is similar to the following:
Insufficient System Resources Exist to Complete the API.
When you experience this problem, the hibernate feature is not available on the computer until you restart the computer. This problem typically occurs when the computer uses 1 gigabyte (GB) or more of RAM.

Failed to migrate dependent packages.
Maybe Microsoft were fed up so called "illegal" distribution of patches
IMO - ANY patch should be public
My new pc has been driving me up the wall with its hibernation failures
Go ms
lol, not really, if u leave wlm or y!m on and go into hibernation, it would've taken u off and reconnected u when u wake it back up!
True, but since we don't have the desire to chat while we're sleeping, we don't care about that...

The news is that MS just published (Tue 15 Aug 2006), as a DIRECTLY downloadable file (which I would call a COOLFIX), the previously released hotfix 909095, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909095 .
That fix does really fix many different glitches in Hibernation under Windows XP SP2:
- Hibernation would disappear from Power Options profiles
- Dehibernation would freeze the PC;
- Loading the PC with USB devices would make it freeze or crash
- Hibernating would fail without clear message when a Dial-up connection was running with some outdated modem drivers; now a clear message helps you figure and get out
- and probably more.
The fix will be integrated in SP3. The worse of these glitches was caused by SP2, that made XP unable to update the size of the pagefile.sys file when the RAM was big (1GB or more).

I first had this problem when I upgraded to 1GB. When SP2 came it was solved.
Later after my upgrade to 2GB it came back.
What is the next limit of the fix? 4GB?
Does this fix that problem?
