IBM Thinkpad 390E & Hibernation HELP!

[CodyJ]

Here is the issue. I have a IBM Thinkpad 390E...

It was given to me for an obvious reason after looking it up... I got it booted once and found it to be running Windows 2000. But the previous user was retarded for doing so because apparently he did not install the correct hotfixes(bios) related to fix a hibernation problem that IBM manually put into all thinkpads. So here are my problems/questions...

What can I do to get it out of hibernation?

I already took the hdd out and turned the pc on... and I have tried multiple times to get the pc out of hibernation. The battery is dead but I think that ibm also did something to were the pc will go into hibernation when the battery gets low, anyhow I need a fix because its a decent laptop if I can somehow fix.
