The answers here are wrong.
Acronis technical support has indicated that this is a known problem
since November. They have not fixed it.
The problem is that the TryandDecide service is stopping hibernation
and sometimes shutdown (the message for that is 'there is a long
process underway....'
They will fix it in the next release or update (thanks alot...the
earliest that happens is every 6 months).
In the meantime, you have to manually turn off the service using ctrl-
alt-delete and disable the tryanddecide service.
Unfortunately, this only works for the current session...you have to
do this every time you reboot.
There is no way to stop this.

Try disabling the service.
Start > Run > services.msc<return>
Double-click on Acronis Try and Decide Service
Click Stop
Set the Startup Type combo to Disabled
OK etc

Re: Acronis 11 on XP stops proper hibernate or stand by
Having started this thread- and having a problem hibernating on an XP with
Acronis 11- I've had several emails with Acronis tech support- in the last,
it was suggested that I turn off the Try and Decide Service- and, voila- I
can now hibernate. I probably never would have tried that service anyways.

Re: Acronis 11 on XP stops proper hibernate or stand by
Correct- turning it off as you describe keeps it off.
What other known bugs are there that Acronis admits to?
