longer than restoring it from memory. When you start up
again, the computer runs a self-test, loads the operating
system, and then returns to the mode in which you left it.

Factors to consider when choosing Hibernation:

While in Hibernation mode, the computer uses no battery
power.

Because the mode of the system is held on the hard disk,
no data is lost if the main battery discharges.

When starting up again, Hibernation uses less time and
battery power than does Turn off computer.

Resuming from Hibernation uses a little more time and
power to start up than restarting from Standby, because
information is being retrieved from the hard disk rather
than from memory.

When starting up again, the computer returns to the mode
in which you left it, including all open programs and files
you were previously using.

Going into Hibernation mode

If you are not connected to a Windows

®

Hibernation command as follows:

Hold down the shift key and click Hibernate
(“Hibernate” only appears while the Shift key is held
down).
