Waking up your notebook

called
flashes. If your notebook is in Sleep mode, press the
power button to "wake" it up.

Turning off your notebook

Putting your notebook into Sleep mode is the easiest
way to power down your notebook. Although it does
not turn your notebook completely off, it turns off or
slows down most system operations to save power.
Sleep mode saves your desktop layout so the next time
you restore power, the programs are laid out just as
you left them. Waking your notebook from a Sleep
state is much faster than turning on your notebook
after it has been turned completely off.
Hibernate mode is an alternative to Sleep mode. In
Hibernate mode, your notebook is turned completely
off. When you wake your notebook from Hibernate
mode, however, the programs that were running
when your notebook entered Hibernate mode are
running just as you left them.
