I didn't find Start Pearl in Vista. On Command Prompt, I tried "powercfg -H off" but it says you don't have permission to enable or diable hibernation. I am an administrator of the PC though. Am I missing anything? 1) Click on the Start Pearl > type cmd in the Search Bar > press Ctrl+Shift+Enter

All of my settings are correct. Have only had my computer for 3 weeks. I can hibernate manually, but not autimatically. Why? Have a Toshiba Satellite A215-S4747 with Windows Vista. Thank You.
