Fredrat Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I know you can add hibernate to the WinXP shutdown menu but I'm wondering if it can be added to the Media Center shutdown menu. Anybody know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeFiend Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 S3 sleep (system standby) mode would also give you great power savings, and also be back from that power saving mode quicker. It's much like hibernate, but keeps the RAM content refreshed (the only thing powered on, wasting only a couple watts), so no need to load the contents from disk first.

bphlpt Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Yes, I believe you should be able to add the hibernation option to the shutdown menu of MCE the same way that you enable in in XP.Cheers and Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beanpole.b Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 (edited) I know you can add hibernate to the WinXP shutdown menu but I'm wondering if it can be added to the Media Center shutdown menu. Anybody know?Just put this in a notepad document and save it as a reg file. Note that this doesn't add hibernate to Media Center the program, but adds it to the Shut down menu (start - turn off computer)Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\Shutdown]"ShowHibernateButton"=dword:00000001Or you can go into regedit and locate to the address and add a new DWORD Value called ShowHibernationButton set to 1.Also, make sure hibernation is set by going into control panel - power options - hibernate Edited July 12, 2008 by beanpole.b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
