Windows XP Hibernation Bug

mood:
listening to: Michael W. Smith - Ancient Words

My laptop has 2 gigs of RAM, and once in a while I get problems when I hibernate it. It would show the laptop trying to hibernate, but after a while Windows will load again with an icon in the system tray saying there was a problem during hibernation.

It's a really annoying bug because sometimes after I hit hibernation I would just walk away, or pack up my laptop in my bag... only to realize that it never turned off! If it's been sitting in my bag for a while, the laptop gets really hot, which is never good.

So today I ran a search for this issue in Google, and I found this page: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000555.html. There is a hotfix for this issue from Microsoft, but you can't download it from Windows Update. It's a good thing someone has uploaded it for others to download. I don't understand why Microsoft doesn't just put it on their Windows update. O_o

Work is going pretty well so far. I'm going to start using the gym at the building where Cuberoute is located at once I get my first paycheque.

I listened to three lectures of PHIL 100. I'm kinda worried about the amount of material I will have to read for this course, but it doesn't sound like a very hard course at all. Time to skill up my BS! =P

Co-op starts

mood:
listening to: Jay Chou - Black Humor

I have finished my first week of the co-op term. It was nice to see some one the people that were there when I worked there last summer. The notebook that I used last summer was still there as well, and it has now been used by two other co-ops.

The school term starts tomorrow, which means I will have to start reading the materials for PHIL 100... I hope this course doesn't have too much work. =P
