Your notebook's RAM typically stores the file(s)
on which you are working, the open applica-
tion(s) and any other data required to support
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 to
resume operation,and there must be an ade-
quate power source available, or your notebook
will not resume.
Using the Suspend/Resume Button to
Perform Save-to-Disk
When your notebook is active,the Suspend/
Resume button, (Figure 3-15), can be used to
manually put your notebook into Save-To-Disk
46
mode. However, you must first enable Save-to-
Disk mode one of the following ways:
For Windows 98 you must enable S ave-
to-Disk mode in the BIOS Setup utility
Power menu. (See pages 100-107 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 pages 52-55 for more information on
PowerPanel.)
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 page 26.) 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.

The Save-to-Disk function,saves the contents of
your notebook's system memory to the hard
drive and shuts down whenever you:

acknowledged with Save-to-Disk mode
enabled from the Power menu of the BIOS
setup utility.

menu with Save-to-Disk mode enabled by
the BIOS setup utility (Windows 95 and
Windows NT only.)

menu with Save-to-Disk enabled by the BIOS
setup utility (Windows 98 only).
