Hibernation depends on a myriad of CPU variants, setting and the matching memory issues. (U)efi is a good place to start your long, arduous journey of research [1] ; see S4. I would research the problem and fix it with winblows as the operating system, if possible; then hope that those setting are not changed by booting linux. Often you can copy the bios setting from the laptop and find tools to at least view the contents legibly. It does depend on the bios. Maybe you need a vendor supplied bios update/downgrade. Maybe Coreboot, has some old work laying around that is relevant to your needs [2]. It is mostly a research journey, that may lead to success or failure. Hard to say, as sometimes the same make and model of a laptop, has diffent internal components (like firmware, bios and chips)... Good hunting!
