    Yet another hibernation problem


    Haven't found this problem anywhere, so i'm making a new thread.

    I have windows 7 RTM and i've been using succesfully hibernation on my laptop. That was untill 2 days ago, when it stopped functioning. When i press hibernate, the screen goes to black then it goes to the password prompt (I have prompt for password on wake up activated), and never goes off.

    Any ideas? I really enjoy hibernation, please help.

    P.S: I have a microsoft wireless desktop (which causes some problems with the screensaver), but it didn't seem to bother the hibernation.

After the BIOS screen, and the bootscreen. Lots of vertical coloured lines come up for a few seconds, then it turns black....
