Does anyone know how to enable Hibernate mode on a Gateway Solo 1100?
I bought my Solo 1100 used. It had a wiped hard drive and no system
restore disks or anything. I reloaded the OS using a generic OEM
Windows 98SE CD. When I go to the Control Panel's Power Management
application, though, there's no "Hibernate" tab available so I can't
enable hibernate support.
All of the on-line documentation available on the Gateway website
indicates that the system originally shipped with Windows 98 and had
Hibernate support.
I tried using the Gateway "chat" technical support option to see if
anyone could tell me how to do it, but after the usual scripted
responses (enable power management in the BIOS - it alreay was,
upgrade to the latest BIOS - already did), one support tech insisted
that the Solo 1100 doesn't support Hibernate (contradicting the
on-line documentation on the Gateway site) and another insisted that
Windows 98 doesn't support Hibernate (again contradicting the on-line
documentation on the Gateway site and another article that I found on
the Microsoft site).
Does anyone have any idea how I can get Hibernate working?
