O.K. how do I get my computer to default to the hibernate mode during the shutdown screen instead of the standby mode? I realize that by holding the shift key it brings it up but on my wifes computer it is the default. It used to be my default before I reformatted. Any Ideas?

Go to Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Power Options and setup Hibernation to be default instead of Standby.

Each computer manufacturer seems to have defaults that are different (and you did not mention what computer or OS you are using), so look at your power management options under Power Options.

What i understand is you want ur pc to 'Hibernate' when you press the Power-Off button. Adding to the above poster, here r the steps that u can follow to get it thro':
1> Start-Settings-Control Panel-Power Options
2> Go to Hiberbate Tab, Enable hibernation, click Apply to save
3> Goto 'Advanced' tab, now you shd see the Gibernate option in the drop-down menu for 'Power-Buttons'.
Cheers.
