Did you make a hibernate file? Did you leave enough empty space on your disk for a hibernate file? As for suspend not working, I think there is an option for switching the default Fn+F4 function between suspend and hibernate. Perhaps your 701 is set to hibernate by default, and without the disk space to do it, it's refusing? > thing that I can think of is that it might get confused if you're > not using loadlin.
