Standby/Hibernation Functions
Precautions
Before entering the standby or hibernation mode
Save all data.
When a file in an external device such as a CD drive, external hard disk, or ATA
card is opened, close the file.
Even when a password has been set in the Setup Utility, [Enter Password] does
not appear when the computer resumes from the standby or hibernation mode.
If you want to use the security function when using the standby or hibernation
mode, use the Windows password as follows:
Windows 2000
Set the password in [Control Panel] - [Users and Passwords], then add the check
mark for [Prompt for password when computer goes off standby] in [Control Panel]
- [Power Options] - [Advanced].
Windows XP
Select the account to change in [Control Panel] - [User Accounts] and set the
password, then add the check mark for [Prompt for password when computer
resumes from standby] in [Control Panel] - [Performance and Maintenance] - [Power
Options] - [Advanced].
Do not enter either the standby or hibernation mode under the following condi-
tions. You may corrupt your data or file, the standby or hibernation function may
not work, or the computer (or peripherals) may fail to work properly.
• When the floppy disk drive indicator (
drive indicator ( ) is on.
• When playing/recording audio files and displaying images (such as MPEG files).
• When communications software is being used.
• When using LAN cards (port), SCSI cards and modem cards (port) etc. (If these
cards fail to work properly, restart the computer.)
• When using the network function.
When entering the standby or hibernation mode*
* Standby mode: until the power indicator blinks green
Hibernation mode: until the power indicator goes off
Avoid the following:
• Touching the keyboard, pointing device (touch pad, external mouse, etc.), or
power switch.
• Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.
• Closing or opening the display.
In standby or hibernation mode
In standby mode, power is consumed. If PC Cards are inserted, more of that
power is consumed. When all power has been consumed, all data saved at standby
is lost since it is retained in memory. We therefore recommend plugging in the AC
adaptor when using the standby function.
Do not insert or remove peripherals while your computer is in standby or hiberna-
tion mode; abnormal operation may result.
