often as you like.

application you wish, not just an e-mail program.

the Button Action field. When you click on the drop-
down arrow, you are offered two choices: Start a

clicking on the option.
At the bottom of each setup page are two check boxes:
Keep this button active even on Standby
Keep this button active even on Hard Drive Timeout

system is in Standby mode, and the second will enable/
disable the button when your hard drive has timed out.

If you choose to have the buttons work when the note-
book is in standby or off, they will function even if hit
accidentally. This will turn on your notebook even if you
are not present or using your notebook. This could
deplete your battery, and you will need to recharge it
before using the notebook. As a precaution, close the
lid when you are away from your notebook.
