Many people have been reporting bugs in Vista's implementation of
sleep/hibernate (e.g. [1]), but you're asking in the wrong forum.

[1] Windows Vista's Hideous Wakeup Support

| dies. It's either a BSOD, or a driver error, or a broken network,
| no DWM, lack of sound... the list goes on, and on. So much for an
| operating system to "power" the future! (No pun intended!) That's
| with properly-signed drivers and no buggy software on
| multiple PCs...
