System hibernates
Turning off the monitor and HDDs will save a substantial amount of battery power,
therefore when in battery only mode select the shortest time practical.
Hibernate Mode (Power Management or Manual Method)
When hibernation is used, your computer turns off and when you power up again,
everything is restored exactly as you left it—including programs and documents
you may not have saved or closed. Everything in memory gets saved to the HDD,
and the monitor and hard disk get turned off.
66 Users Manual
By default, the power scheme is
configured to SAMSUNG mode.
SAMSUNG mode extends the battery
life and optimizes the Intel Speedstep
function.Since the CPU power
consumption is automatically lowered
to conserve power when the computer
is operating on battery power, an
application may be executed slower
than when it is operating on AC power.
To use SAMSUNG mode after
reinstalling Windows, install the
PowerCFG program using the system
software CD.
