Slow Hibernation

[Skip]

When computer goes into hibernation,it stores what ever
it has in memory on your hard drive. When it comes out of
hibernation, it returns to previous state. That is why it
hibernated quicker with the clean hard drives. Once you
started running programs it will take longer.I'm not
realy sure it would take 5 minutes. Do you have that time
listed in power management for hibernation to take
effect? Check power scheme settings for
hibernation...Good luck
