I have an application for Windows XP. This application is deployed with the hardware. The application is the only application that ever runs on these machines. These machines are never connected to the internet. I’m interested in instant-on (or quick-on) options that bypass the Windows XP startup for these machines.
This is similar to Windows XP “hibernation”, but not exactly. With hibernation, the memory state is only read from disk once – the very next time the system is turned on. I want a memory state permanently stored to disk, so the system always starts from that same spot every time, regardless of how it was shut down. How can I achieve this?
Sounds like you’re looking for the Hibernate Once, Resume Many feature of Windows Embedded.
