Re: TP701 Hibernation File

epbrown,

the hibernation file has nothing to to with the suspend mode.

In suspend mode everything is switched off only the RAM is being powered.
In Hibernation mode *erverything* is switched off and the RAM is beeing written to disk. 
Hence the name "hibernation file"


rj,

try a file manager like the "Norton Commander".
Or use the ATTRIB.EXE dos application to remove the Read-Only attribut.
Type HELP ATTRIB or ATTRIB /? for an explanation.
