Running Windows XP SP2, with latest fixes per the Feb 07 Patch Tuesday, on Gateway
700SE tower with 1.5 GB RAM, Pentium 4 @ 2.0 GHz, three hard disks with 21.1 GB free
space on system drive (c:). After installing an ATI Radeon 9200 dual-head AGP graphics
adapter and a second monitor, with latest AGI driver and Net Framework 2.0 (1.1 is
still installed), hibernation, which I use often, went from about 15 seconds to about
2:15. No noticed changes in performance elsewhere in the system.
(1) Applied latest fixes from Feb 07 Patch Tuesday to Net Framework 2.0 (there were
several as I recall) ... hibernation reduced to about 1:49.
(2) Defragmented drive c:, the system volume (which has hiberfil.sys), and reduced
hibernation by only 7 more seconds.
(3) After backing up the registry, used PC Tools' Registry Mechanic to scan and fix
any registry problems and then compact and optimize my registry. No difference in
hibernation after that.
Anyone have an idea about this?
