Power Properties) and select
Suspend is a reduced power condition during which most of the
major components (such as the hard drive, processor, and display)
shut down after a period of system inactivity called a timeout.
Suspend can be initiated whether the computer is running on
battery or external power.
Suspend is initiated in one of three ways:
Automatically—when a predefined timeout has been reached.
In Windows 95, you can define the Suspend timeout period
through the Battery Conservation Settings tab in Power
Properties (click Start Æ Control Panel Æ double-click Power
Æ Power Properties).
Manually—by pressing the Suspend button on the computer.
Manually—by clicking Suspend from the Windows Start
menu.
With a fully charged battery pack, the computer can be left in
Suspend for up to several days, depending on your hardware
configuration.
When you exit Suspend, your information returns to the screen at
the point where Suspend was initiated. No information is lost.
If the computer is in Suspend and a low battery condition occurs,
the system initiates Hibernation, saves your information to the
hard disk, and turns off your computer. When you install a fully
charged battery pack or connect to an external power source, your
information returns to the screen at the point where Suspend was
initiated. No information is lost.
