How to Enable Hibernate in Windows Vista

Do you realize that Windows Vista does not have the hibernate feature? Instead of hibernate, in Windows Vista, you can only put your PC or laptop in “Sleep” mode (or standby mode in Windows XP) where Windows Vista keeps your session in memory and your PC or laptop in a low power state. So that you can quickly resumes work when you need it.

What is hibernate mode in Windows? Unlike "Sleep" mode, hibernate mode put your session in physical disk (hard disk) and switch off your computer totally. Windows can let you quickly resume your work by loading the session from physical disk without needing to reload the whole operating system.
