Ever since I got my PC I've hibernated it instead of shutting it down each time I am finished with it, but now it won't start up again! It goes into hibernation fine but when you switch it on again it restarts itself before returning to your desktop and says the previous boot attempt failed and gives me two options

- Delete restoration data and continue to windows boot
- Continue loading restoration data

Any ideas?

Its probably a hardware or driver issue that prevents is from recovering properly from Hibernation. Check the Event logs for possible sources of the problem. I would update BIOS and motherboard drivers for starters...

Yes it was a driver issue. I uninstalled the faulty driver and now it hibernates fine. Thanks!
