E

Standby

Standby saves the least amount of power, but takes the shortest time to return to full
operation. During Standby the hard disk is turned off, and the CPU is made to idle at
its slowest speed. All open applications are retained in memory. When you are not
using your computer for a certain length of time, which you specify in the operating
system, it will enter Standby mode to save power.

Hibernate

Hibernate uses no power and saves all of your information on a part of the HDD be-
fore it turns the system off. Although it saves the most power it takes the longest time
to return to full operation. You will need to enable Hibernate mode from the Hiber-
nate
tab in the Power Options control panel. The system will resume from Hiber-
nate mode by pressing the power button
.



System Resume

The system can resume
from Standby mode by:

• Pressing the power

button

• An alarm resume that

is enabled and expires

• An incoming call

received on the
modem (if enabled)

• Network card activity

(if enabled)
