Hibernation and ATMELTPM.INF

[Domin]

Hello all Thinkpadders,

Now and than my T61 (running on XP) blue screens while resuming from hibernation. The event viewer says:

"The System Restore filter encountered the unexpected error '0xC000000D' while processing the file 'ATMELTPM.INF' on the volume 'HarddiskVolume2'. It has stopped monitoring the volume."

I've searched the forum and come across something similar:

However, that post was about disappearing restore points (mine seem to be there), and my problem is the pain of being unable to use hibernation (useful when you're working with lots of apps and windows open).

Microsoft Knowledge Base offers this:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888402/

but is doesn't help, because the problem applies to Service Pack 2 - the hotfix doesn't install on a SP3 system.

In other words, the source of the problem seems to be either with Client Security Solution and/or System Restore.

[Edit: I just created a restore point (before installing a new driver), did the installation, then did the restore action and - according to Windows, no changes have been applied to the system (!); and it couldn't restore it; so, in addition to hibernation, system restore seems not to be working, either .]

Does anybody know a solution/workaround to this? I can't be the only one affected Any help appreciated.

Regards,

Dominik
