Why does my laptop do this?

[Elluzion]

When I try to hibernate my laptop, "sometimes" (once and a while) it will say insuficient system resources, even though nothing huge is running or hogging anything. wtf?

Screenshot if this helps:

Check to see if you have the following KB909095 hotfix installed...

The computer occasionally does not hibernate and you receive an "Insufficient System Resources Exist to Complete the API" error message in Windows XP with Service Pack 2, in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005, or in Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

The update is available from MS here...

Go through task manager and look up each program to make sure it should be running. Malicious proggy's can eat up resources
