and search for the driver which deals with the hibernation.
and basically follow the previous post and solve your problem that way.
awesome, but my other question is how do i get into dos from startup? it stops loading after it gives me the warning

The boot disc should get you into DOS. I believe any boot disc other than Win2000 and XP should work. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

As a computer technician, kicking or stomping on a computer works to solve the problem 9/10 times. However it tends to cause more problems, so if you can blame someone else for it, all the better ;)
