Long time since a REBOOT

No hiberfil.sys on this machine. It's a Windows 2000 datacenter server. Even the windows updates don't make it reboot. There is a page procedure on rebooting the darn thing with numbers to call. About as fun as calling up the underwriters to get a hot work permit.

EDIT: it's not over a year that 11k hour figure has to be divided by four.

Damn! You have to go to a committe at my company as well for a reboot request. You can thank SOX for that.

Most of the MS security patches and stuff require reboot. That happens about once a month here, how do you avoid rebooting for them? Sorry, answer later in thread.

Agreed, that's why I turn mine off every night. Power bill for two people in a 2-bedroom apartment this month and last month was about $34 😉
