Powering down the computer
❖
When starting up again, the computer returns to the mode in
which you left it, including all open programs and files you
were using.
NOTE: If you power down using the Standby command and
the main battery discharges fully, your information will be
lost. Be sure to save your work first.
To power down the computer using the Standby command, click
Start, Turn Off Computer, and select Stand By.
Sample Turn Off Computer Windows
NOTE: If you hold down the shift key, StandBy becomes
Hibernate in the Turn Off Computer dialog box. To enter
hibernation mode, hold down the shift key while you select
Hibernate.
The computer saves the status of all open programs and files, turns
off the display, and goes into a low-power mode. The on/off light
blinks amber indicating the machine is in Standby mode.
