Why doesn't my computer prompt me for a password when it returns from hibernation?
For your computer to prompt you for a password when it returns from
hibernation, you must select the "Prompt for password when computer goes
off standby" check box on the Power Options Advanced tab:
- Start the Power Options Control Panel applet (Start, Settings, Control
Panel, Power Options).
- Select the Advanced tab.
- Check the "Prompt for password when computer goes off standby"
check box.
- Click OK.
