the operation(s) in progress. When you resume
operation from Suspend mode, it returns to
the point in the operation where it left off.
You must use the Suspend/Resume button

notebook will not resume.
Using the Suspend/Resume Button to
Perform Save-to-Disk
When your notebook is active, the Suspend/
Resume button (Figure 3-17) can be used to
manually put your notebook into Save-To-Disk
mode if you have enabled Save-to-Disk mode in
one of the following ways:
For Windows 98 you must enable Save-to-
Disk mode in the BIOS Setup utility Power
menu. (See page 56 for more information on
the Power menu of the BIOS Setup utility.)
For Windows 95 and Windows NT you can
simply click the Save-to-Disk activation but-
ton on the PowerPanel toolbar menu.
(See page 56 for more information on
PowerPanel.)

Hold down the Fn key and push the Suspend/
Resume button, when your notebook is active
but no Access indicators are on and release the
button (immediately). You will hear two short
beeps and then your system will flash the Save-
to-Disk screen, and enter Save-to-Disk mode.
If your notebook is in Save-to-Disk mode,
pushing the Suspend/Resume button will
return your notebook to active operation at the
point where it went into Save-to-Disk mode.
You can tell whether or not your system is in
Save-to-Disk mode by looking at the Power
indicator. (See pages 28-29.) If it is visible and
not flashing, your notebook is fully operational.
If it is visible and flashing, your notebook is in
Suspend mode. If it is not visible, the power is
Off or your notebook is in Save-to-Disk mode.
Save-to-Disk Mode
The Save-to-Disk function, saves the contents of
your notebook's system memory to the hard
drive and shuts down whenever you:
Press the Suspend/Resume button until
acknowledged with Save-to-Disk mode
enabled from the Power menu of the
BIOS setup utility.
Select Save-to-Disk activation from the
PowerPanel toolbar or menu (Windows 95
and Windows NT only.)
Select Standby from the Windows Shut
Down menu with Save-to-Disk enabled by
the BIOS Setup Utility (Windows 98 only).
Time out from lack of activity with Save-To-
Disk mode enabled from the Power Savings
menu of the BIOS setup utility.
Your notebook's system memory typically stores
the file(s) on which you are working, the open
application(s) and any other data required to
support the operation(s) in progress.
