Turning off the power
The power can be turned off in one of the following modes: Shut down
(Boot), Hibernation or Standby mode.
Shut Down mode (Boot mode)
When you turn off the power in Shut Down mode, no data is saved and
the computer will boot to the operating system's main screen.
1. If you have entered data, save it to the hard disk or to a diskette.
2. Make sure all disk activity has stopped, then remove any
CD/DVD ROMs or diskette.
Make sure the Disk indicators is off. If you turn off the power while a disk
is being accessed, you can lose data or damage the disk.
3. Click start then click Turn off computer. From the Turn off
computer menu select, click Turn off .
4. Turn off the power to any peripheral devices.
Do not turn the computer or devices back on immediately. Wait a moment
to let all capacitors fully discharge.
Hibernation mode
The hibernation feature saves the contents of memory to the hard disk
when the computer is turned off. When the next time the computer is
turned on, the previous state is restored. The hibernation feature does not
save the status of peripheral devices.
Save your data. While entering hibernation mode, the computer saves the
contents of memory to the HDD. However, for safety sake, it is best to
save your data manually.
Data will be lost if you remove the battery or disconnect the AC adaptor
before the save is completed. Wait for the Disk indicator to go out.
Do not install or remove a memory module while the computer is in
hibernation mode. Data will be lost.
