yes im running as admin , i just thought id try your advise as my drive had rather a large windows 7 install . Your right if “it aint broke” . i did follow your instructions to the letter in cmd type :powercfg.exe /hibernate off and click enter .Ive sorted it out now ,put the drive back to the original state but lowered the pagefile as for my 16 gig of ram it was a 16gig page file .
anyway all sorted now 
believe me i wouldn’t of tried something like that if i didn’t have a clone 
cheers
