My Hibernate works. My question is this....When clicking on start>> Turn
off computer....I have 3 choices log off, shutdown, restart. Hibernate
used to be there. How do I restore this please.

Go to Start > Turn Off Computer and press your
Shift key. By doing so, the Standby button changes
momentarily to Hibernate, then click the Hibernate
button.

Are you reporting what's actually there?
I see Stand by, Turn off, Restart. I do _not_ see "log off" nor
"shutdown". Please be careful to reproduce messages _exactly_ in
future -- it can make a difference in whether we can help you.
Assuming that the dialog says what I think and not what you said,
press the Shift key and Stand By becomes Hibernate.

Hibernate used to be there, to the left of log off.
Yes I am aware of the shift key trick. (That's why I said first "My
hibernate works."
I really do appreciate the suggestions, but there is a setting somewhere
that got changed. (I obviously have a check in the power setting dialog)
thank you

When you click "Turn Off Computer" on the Start menu,
the Hibernate button does not appear in Windows XP Service Pack 2

I'm completely stumped. Perhaps you have some sort of virus. I've
never seen those three choices in the dialog you say you invoked; and
I've never seen Microsoft use "shutdown" as one word in XP.
Are you set up in a domain or a workgroup? I'm grasping at straws
here, but maybe that makes a difference.
