Hi,

I have win vista ultimate 32bit.

I want to disable Sleep feature to reclaim 1.50 gb on my system drive
(because I have 1.50 gb of ram) of space consumed by its hibernation file.

Plz tell me how to do I have tried to disable it but to no avail.

Regards.

Oc9ine.

Start> Control Panel> Power Options. Then select "High Performance" (or
whichever one you want) and click "Change Plan Settings" and select
"Never" for "Put the Computer To Sleep" and save changes.

You can delete the hibernation file with "powercfg -h on" (no quotes)
in cmd.

Hello Oc9ine,

Disabling hibernation will remove that file and allow you to reclaim
the space back.

Hope this helps,
