    This would have to be enabled on the Motherboard or something because Hibernate is essentially a shutdown with the RAM saved into the Hard Drive, unless they’ve changed that.

        Most modern mainboards don’t even support ACPI S3/S4 anymore. The ACPI spec is pretty badly written and most implementations were flaky in some way. So when ACPI S0ix (aka Modern Standby) came around the old states were essentially abandoned.

        Of course S0ix is less a hibernation and more kindly asking the OS to turn off the screen and consider using fewer resources.
