Power Button

So how do you change the Powerbutton controls? Like the button u use to turn the comp on. How would u configure that, that when u push it when the comp is on that it hibernates instead of shuting down?

Right click on desktop->Properties->Screen Saver->Power->Advanced

You should be able to set what your computer does when you hit the power button and the sleep button (Note: you need to have hibernate enabled in order to have the option of hibernating when you press the power button)
