Hi,
I was wondering what the difference was between System Standby and System
Hibernates in Windows XP?

S3/stand by/ suspend to ram - writes to ram and enters sleep state
S4/hibernate/suspend to disk -writes to disk enters a sleep state
I believe most MCE users will use S3 because it's quicker and with normal
use the extra security of writing to disk is not required.

In addition, Media center can 'wake up' a PC in Standby to record a scheduled
TV program and then return to Standby mode.
I guess this is a feature that could be used by other apps.
