    Boot into safe mode and from the command prompt:

    > del/a:s hiberfil.sys

    If that doesn't work go to start/run sfc /scannow

    You will need your XP disk for this.

    You must have the proper hardware to use hibernation. If the Hibernate tab is not available, the computer does not support hibernation.
    Because the contents of the computer's memory are written to disk when the computer enters hibernation, you must have at least as much available disk space as you have memory.
