I'm going *crazy* trying to get hibernation to work on my pvr. I've recently installed The Hibernator so at least the machine now hibernates when it's idle. But now I have a problem with it waking up. Sometimes I get the grey "Resuming Windows" bar across the bottom of the screen and then the PC hangs. I have to hit the reset switch and delete the restoration data to get it back.
Anyone any idea what might be causing this issue? Or any pointers as to where I can start looking, any logging I can switch on etc? I really don't want to leave the machine running 24x7, my electricity bill (and impact on the planet) is bad enough as it is
All help greatly appreciated! Running XP, by the way.

PS: As an aside, I had a spare hard disk so I tried installing Vista on the same
machine - no problems at all with hibernation then, but the Vista nVidia drivers don't support TV-out So it's back to XP...
