Do you know if it fixes this issue? I haven't been able to find a list 
of what it actually fixes!

In XP (home, pro, media center).. if you have more than 1g of ram, 
hibernate fails.

There was a hotfix for this, BUT, the hotfix won't install if SP2 is 
present. The only solution is to go back below 1g ram to get it to work. 
There are various articles suggesting deleting the hibernate save-status 
file, etc., but none of these work for me.

So I wonder if this issue is addressed in SP3 (I'm on media center 
edition).

It would be nice to have hibernate working - when it did work was very 
convenient.
