Hibernation
Ä
CAUTION: If the configuration of the notebook is changed during
hibernation, resuming from hibernation may not be possible. When the
notebook is in hibernation:
■
Do not dock the notebook in or undock the notebook from a
docking device.
■
Do not add or remove memory modules.
■
Do not insert or remove any hard drives or optical drives.
■
Do not connect or disconnect external devices.
■
Do not insert or remove a Digital Media Slot card, a PC Card, or
an ExpressCard (select models only).
Hibernation saves your work to a hibernation file on the hard
drive, and then shuts down the notebook. When you restore from
hibernation, your work returns to the screen where you left off. If
a power-on password has been set, the password must be entered
to restore from hibernation.
You can disable hibernation. However, if hibernation is disabled
and the system reaches a low-battery condition, the system will
not automatically save your work while power is on or when
standby has been initiated.
Use Power Options in Microsoft® Windows® Control Panel to
reenable hibernation:
»
Select Start > Control Panel > Performance and
Maintenance > Power Options > Hibernate tab. Make
sure that the Enable hibernation check box is selected.
To set the time interval after which the system initiates
hibernation:
1. Select Start > Control Panel > Performance and
Maintenance > Power Options.
2. Click one of the intervals in the System hibernates list.
