3.4.5 Dual-State Power Button

With Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) enabled, the power button can
function either as an on/off switch or as a standby button. The stand-by feature does not
completely turn off power, but instead causes the computer to enter a low-power standby state.
This allows you to power down quickly without closing applications and to return quickly to the
same operational state without any data loss.
To change the power button's configuration, complete the following steps:
1. Left click on the Start Button, then select Control Panel > Power Options.
2. In the Power Options Properties, select the Advanced tab.
3. In the Power Button section, select Stand by.
