Dear Unk:
Thanks for working with me. I'll let John comment more on
your list, but Norton Anti-Virus is my main protection and
I don't leave home without it. I could, of course, disconnect from
the phone line and disable it to see if somehow that's the cause.
One thing at a time.....

William; I compared my services with yours since my system does not fail
to hibernate.
I'll post the differences. Do a Google search for 'viewpoint manager
services'. Looks suspicious.
I would also suspect Norton AntiVirus.
Differences (not on my system) a
LexBce Server
lxct device
Norton AntiVirus-------I would definately get rid of this.
Pervasive PSQL Workgroup Engine
Speed Disk Service------Part of Norton
Viewpoint Manager Service

If I understand correctly, you have the machine set to hibernate after
2 hours of inactivity but it can't enter the hibernation state because
something keeps it awake...

This is what I would try:

Reboot the machine and don't do anything whatsoever after it boots,
leave it alone for the time set for hibernation and see if it does
hibernate.

If it doesn't hibernate I would then try a clean boot and once again
not touch the machine for the set time and see if it does hibernate.

How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" state

John, I followed instructions. Touched NOTHING for 4 hours
(hibernate set at 2). Power-on light on tower was flashing
and it never went to hibernate. I'll read the Clean Boot instructions
again. Last time I thought it was quite an effort, but this is
this time. Maybe this evening.
