My file server is set to turn off automatically every night at 9:30PM. It runs the FreeNAS operating system.
Nine years old? Windows ME?! Holy crap, that explains almost everything. Although that's a really decent machine for its age, I have an almost 9 year old Win98SE PC in my room, and it can barely play the Mystic Realm at 320x240. XDI'll Begin said:It actually came out of the box with Windows ME. We upgraded to XP a few years after we got it.
Yes. I'm using a 9 year old computer. :P Just look at my specs (on my xFire profile)
Those are seriously strange problems, Flame, O_o you might want to post that on the Ubuntu forums and ask the users there what's going on. I bet most of your problems have something to do with Power Management.Flame said:When I was using Ubuntu, I grew pretty fond of it's appearence and etc... The only problem I had is that it would start to slow down and freeze at times when I'm loading or working on something. Shortly after, it would create a weird clicking noise for unknown reasons and wouldn't go away till I restarted. But when I restarted, I had a chance of the GRUB loader not being able to boot Ubuntu and reading it as a "Read disk error".
I thought hibernate takes longer to resume, because it saves the RAM's contents to the hard disk. I think you meant Sleep (or Suspend to RAM) Mode. :PSimsmagic said:I just put it on hibernate so it uses less power and allows me to quickly resume what I'm doing.
On my computer, i just have to hit a key to wake it up.Autosaver said:On my XP,I usually avoid sleep mode.
Sometimes in Sleep mode,it freezes. O_O
I move the mouse like crazy but it doesn't want to wake up.

No, I use Hibernate. That's what the computer calls it anyways, and it does cuts load time in half for me.Dr.Pepper said:I thought hibernate takes longer to resume, because it saves the RAM's contents to the hard disk. I think you meant Sleep (or Suspend to RAM) Mode. :P
