[Trace Windows 7 boot/shutdown/hibernate/standby/resume issues]

Thank you Magic Andre so, so much .

You nailed it with the disc cache!

It needs to be activated in Device manager by right licking on the HDD, properties, guidelines and activating the write-cache.

Result: Hibernate delay has been reduced from +10 Minutes to about 10 SECONDS!

I would probably never have found it without your hint.

Absolutely wonderful!

[Trace Windows 7 boot/shutdown/hibernate/standby/resume issues]

Hi,

thanks for your insightful discussion.

My XP system suddenly takes +10min to hibernate. Wake up and turn off are normal.

I made an etl file, but I always get an error when trying to produce an xml file from it - in XP as well as Win7.

Therefore I uploaded the .etl file and hope you would be so kind and take a look at it.
