The hibernation file for my Thinkpad 701 is created on the DOS partition.
If you don't have a DOS partition, make one. That may be enough.
Also, my BIOS has an option for setting the hibernate file size explicitly;
if you've added memory, the default size may be too small now. If you have
a recent Thinkpad, though, good luck setting BIOS options without Win95
installed.
