Effects of Increasing Memory
When Random Access Memory (RAM) increases, the operating
system increases the hard drive space reserved for the
Hibernation file.
If you experience problems with Hibernation after increasing
RAM, verify that your hard drive has enough free space to
accommodate a larger Hibernation file.
■ To display the amount of RAM in the system:
❏ In Windows 2000, select Start > Settings > Control
Panel > System > General tab.
❏ In Windows XP, select Start > Control Panel >
Performance and Maintenance > System > General tab.
❏ In Windows 2000 or Windows XP, press fn+esc.
■ To display the amount of free space on your hard drive,
double-click the My Computer icon on the desktop, then
select your hard drive. Information about the space on the
drive is displayed in a status bar at the bottom of the window.
■ To display the amount of space required by the
Hibernation file:
❏ In Windows 2000, select Start > Settings > Control
Panel > HP Power > Hibernation tab.
