Hibernation depends on a myriad of CPU variants, setting and the matching |
| 12 |
memory issues. (U)efi is a good place to start your long, arduous journey |
| 13 |
of research [1] ; see S4. |

I would research the problem and fix it with winblows as the operating |
| 17 |
system, if possible; then hope that those setting are not changed |
| 18 |
by booting linux. Often you can copy the bios setting from the laptop |
| 19 |
and find tools to at least view the contents legibly. It does depend |
| 20 |
on the bios. Maybe you need a vendor supplied bios update/downgrade. |

Maybe Coreboot, has some old work laying around that is relevant to |
| 23 |
your needs [2]. It is mostly a research journey, that may lead |
| 24 |
to success or failure. Hard to say, as sometimes the same make and |
| 25 |
model of a laptop, has diffent internal components (like firmware, bios |
| 26 |
and chips)... |
