Hello, I bought my sony vaio refurbished. It didn't come with the necessary partition to do the hibernation functions. You need to create the partition. But what you really need is the phdisk.exe utitlity on your disk images that you got from sony. Not only does the partition need to be the right size, it must be of the right type, and then the utility tells the bios about the hibernation partition. Without all of this setup up propery it doesn't matter what keys you hit or apm -s.. it won't work. But it should still suspend to dram nicely. KG
