Keeping windows in hibarnate and going to os x

dwayneford · 03-06-2007, 10:27 PM

hey guys.

i have had a sweet problem with my drivers. everytime i started windows i would have to put it into safe mode and reinstalling my video driver for windows, and then restart and it would work.
i have tryed to put windows into hibernate and go to os x and went back to windows and i didn't have to reinstall when i hibernated.

is it ok for me to leave windows in hibernate and go to Osx and back to windows, i do this alot. not just once a while.

any questions about the question please let me no,

thank you

I don't see why not - all hibernate does (IIRC) is save your session. Sort of like a nonrestrictive DeepFreeze/DriveShield.

so it should be fine.
but i am guessing that i should prob shut down every once and a while?
