This is a tough issue you need to take up with the machine's maker. They will have to supply the machine ready to hibernate to you and just like before, it turns out that for desktops, hibernate gets broken by drivers that are rushed out the door for this simple reason.
It's a desktop and hibernate is far from a priority in desktop driver development. Can you hear the manager asking "Is it done yet?"
Just like in the past, you'll find that you may never fix it or if you do, a MS Patch or a new driver will break it again.
Take my advice, use the monitor power saving mode or ...
Complain to the maker of the system about it.

I have not used hibernate since I changed to xp and can't seem to get it to work except manually. I set the power settings to variou different ones and set the hibernate to one hour - the other settings would be shorter. Also, of course I set allow hibernate.
I also use a screen saver. Could someone explain the hibernate set up. My machine is AMD with the usual bells and whistles. Would some background programs cause this problem?
