epbrown, the hibernation file has nothing to to with the suspend mode. In suspend mode everything is switched off only the RAM is being powered. In Hibernation mode *erverything* is switched off and the RAM is beeing written to disk. Hence the name "hibernation file" rj, try a file manager like the "Norton Commander". Or use the ATTRIB.EXE dos application to remove the Read-Only attribut. Type HELP ATTRIB or ATTRIB /? for an explanation.
