Hibernation mode is not supported under Windows 2000.
This type of action is referred to as "Surprise Device Removal". If the user
should accidentally remove a PC Card / CardBus device while their computer
is in Standby or Hibernation mode, the operating system does have the ability
to make a smooth recovery after such an event occurs. However, for some
PC Card / CardBus devices surprise removal can cause the operating system
to "crash", whereby the user has not way to recover afterwards without
rebooting the system.
