    You won't have Fast Startup if the system is Older and does not have a UEFI Bios , if it has a Legacy Bios like my X58A MB then it is maybe not an Option.

    Looks like I had Hibernation turned OFF more info further in the Thread.

    edit looks like it is an X38 MB so won't be available

    This desktop is old and doesn't have UEFI, I can turn on fast startup? Turn on fast startup is check marked by default for me, I have to go in and turn it off manually. If I uncheck "Allow hybrid sleep" its disabled and greyed out though.

    Perhaps it is this MB ? and the Options set S1/S3 etc ? Gigabyte Boards have had Sleep issues for years......

    Or that I have disabled Hibernate with powercfg ? at some point since I used to have a small SSD and need to re-enable it ?

    Since .222 some options changed in the Advanced Power Scheme Options , not sure if that is my no hibernation issue showing again or not?

    powercfg /a tells me I only have S3

    If you disable hibernation via powercfg I believe it completely disappears from the power options menu. It's not even listed. The BIOS S1/S3 capabilities being a factor is what I was thinking too.

    I've never found sleep mode or hibernate very reliable, ASUS motherboards here. Plus I have SSD's as boot drives so fast startup isn't really needed so I turn it off. I've also had issues trying to boot to my BIOS with fast startup on, another reason why I turn it off.

    Sorry JohnyJohn , I didn't mean to take over the Thread but Alpha's Comments got me looking into it more on this old MB which was made about the same time as yours.

    You said you checked Hiberboot was set to 1 (faststartup) but did you check if Hibernation was Enabled? If not you won't see the FastStart option from what I read yesterday.

    powercfg /a at a Admin Command Prompt (RC Start Button to find) will tell you the sleepstates the computer has enabled or disabled.

    powercfg -h on turns Fast startup and Hibernation On

    powercfg -h off turns Fast startup and Hibernation Off

    I guess you saw the FastStartup Tutorial?

    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/4...dows-10-a.html


    And for me......

    I had indeed in the past turned off hibernation with powercfg -h off due to the issue with this GByte MB in Win7 not Hibernating properly and the file being the same size as the Ram installed and had done the same with Win10 I think. ( or the setting carried thru with the upgrade ) .

    I decided to switch it back on with Powercfg -h on and see if Win10 handles Hibernation any better on this Board and FastStartup appeared in the Options once again , with both S1 or S3 , the other options change depending on which one I choose in the Bios for eg if S1 is used there is no Hybrid Sleep available.

    It appears in Win10 that the Hibernation File is about 40% of the Ram installed (5gb with 12gb Installed) and you can now set the Size of the Hibernation file or use it only for FastStartup (which I don't use either as it stops WOL working) with the powercfg commandline switches found here of size and Reduced/Full etc........
