I looked on google for this all i found was people wanting it TO hibernate, it may seem weird but i DON'T want mine to. This way i can run a server on it without it glowing all night :/

Anyone know how to do this?

Control panel -> power options -> on the side menu click "change what do when the lid closes". There is also one under power schemes where you can click "advanced power settings" for even more cusomisation.

Yeah everything is kind of hidden in vista.

Btw. this may be of help to someone. Under that advanced options menu is an option to change the shutdown button to actually shutdown (by default its sleep and you have to click the arrow)
