hibernation

When I select My Pictures Slideshow as a screen saver, my PC will not go
into hibernation. With any other screen saver setting it works fine. Is
there a solution for this, or is it normal? Thanks

Are you talking about hibernation which is a shutdown option or standby
which is something done with the system still booted. If talking about
standby, this is most likely an issue either with the graphics card drivers
that may not support standby under this condition or, pure and simple,
because the system is technically active when using the slideshow feature,
it cannot go into standby mode under this condition.
