    yeah.. to be honest with yah though, unless you are lazy, and can't take the 2 seconds more to save your files, and close everything out, i'd say just leave the damn thing on.. .

    i've NEVER used MS's hibernate function after trying it once in win95..er was it 98... either way.. i found it to be quite shitty.. and i don't reccomend it to anyone..

    as far as your situation goes right now.. i'd say yer f'd .. don't use hybernate anymore.. if you are on a laptop.. shut it down..

    problem lies, not with windows so much, as the settings you need.. and the Hard Drive you are using.. spin down times, etc... some HD's can't cope with Hibernating, because of the way they receive power, and manage their spinning..

    good luck to yah in the current situation.. let us know if you find out how to get your stuff back up and running without having to shut down..

    you haven't been tampered with.. no one's hacked you.. it's just windows, notifying you that files aren't accessable the way they should be.. system files can't be read.. and i'm willing to bet your cache file cannot be read correctly because of the HD spin down.. thus.. windows wants to let you know.. (they customize their messages too much to one scenario.. instead of having a seperate message for this instance of not being able to access the file..)
