Thanks very much for all the replies. I appreciate your helps. After reading all the replies, I feel the problme should be dcsribed precisely & completely, which is not easy. Let me describe my problem again. Basically, suspend/resume doesn't work in my 701C. Windows 95 & NT 4.0 crash after resume. But, the hibernation works greatly. More strange thing is that Linux refuses either suspend and hibernation. Ken: I'm using umsdos and lilo. Well, LILO works fine for me. However, I tried with loadlin as you suggested. Nothing changed. Dave: You suggested to try 'apm -s' to suspend. Wow, it makes a difference. Linux goes to suspend by 'apm -s'. But, it fails to resume. The kernel get unstable, and eventually crashes. John: I'm using Fn+F4 but closing lid makes the same problem. And, I stay on the AC power. I have the most recent BIOS, a DOS partition with enough space for hibernation. Bill recommens to reformat HDD and reinstall a fresh Win95. Does it really make a difference ? Well, everything seems OK in DOS (DOS only session of Win 95). I just tried to get EzServe repair. They ask me check the suspend on the first screen of Ez-Setup(hold F1 when power on). Yes, it works. So what? The Ez-Setup will be simpler program than DOS. However, that's the way they check the problem. As long as no problem is found in the system setup program, they don't give a service. I think it should be a hardware problem, I have to prove it to EzServe team. How can I do that ? Thanks again How can I do that ?
