That's about as much of a reasonable answer as "don't play Ootp ..."
I also have a laptop - it also hibernates (like all the other millions of laptops). Every single other program I have
ever run on my computer will hibernate just fine - except Ootp. When my system restores from a hibernation, everything comes back up except Ootp, which is just a border around a completely black screen. The mouse pointer won't even show up in this blackness. Did I mention that I've never had this trouble in any of 1000's of other programs ...
You can see I don't post much to these boards with problems ... Sound files when simming crash my system (Ootp is the only program with this problem ...). Steves 'advice' was "don't use sounds" Hibernate doesn't work, the reply is "don't use hibernate" Ootp6 waivers don't work - "don't use waivers". The logical conclusion is: Ootp doesn't work - "don't play Ootp" ...
