    Just to follow up on the Hibernation issue with e6400 and Intel 520 SSD 120GB.

    I have mirrored the 520 SSD to an WD 500GB connected via eSATA. I removed the 520 from the laptop and booted from the eSATA WD.

    I was able to hibernate the WD clone drive more than 10 times without any issue. Also tested hybrid shut down 5 times without issue. Sleep was tested twice without issue.

    I then removed the WD clone and returned the 520 and booted it. It failed to hibernate on the first attempt. I have tried two Intel 520 drives and they had the same flaw. I'm using the latest 11.7 IRST drivers with the latest e6400 bios.

    Conclusion:
    I am satisfied that the problem lays somewhere between the e6400 and the Intel 520 SSD.

    So it seems like the new version of the drivers break the side bar scrolling (version 8.1200.101.124)

    Anyone get the new drivers (released feb 2013) to work with side bar scrolling?
