Have you tried booting into Safe Mode? If not, try booting into Safe
Mode to see if it will let you move the mouse/use the keyboard without
going into hibernation. Then if it does, look at your
registry/msconfig/startup folder for anything that looks suspicious.
You might also want to look at your power settings and turn off
hibernation.

Post back with more info.

Booting in safe mode stopped it from happening but, I narrowed the problem
down to AACPP from Nortons so, I ran a virus scan and found 3 viruses.
reinstaled a new Nortens.
