Description

Standby

Puts the system into Standby mode, a power management state that saves the state of the system and peripheral devices
in memory (RAM). Power consumption reduces to a minimum, and the system remains on. To return the system to the active
state, press any key or the power button on your computer.

Hibernate

Provides for the lowest level of power consumption. The system writes the state of the system and peripheral devices to
the hard disk drive and turns off the system power. To return the system to the original state, use the power button to turn
on power. The system saves the data in the Save to Disk Partition on the hard disk drive.

LCD (Video) Standby

Turns off the video display to save power. If you turn off the Video Standby timer, the display remains active except when
the system enters Standby mode. The video display system is one of the largest consumers of power in the system.
