3.3.10 Replicating Your Setup
This procedure gives an administrator the ability to easily copy one setup configuration to other
computers of the same model. This allows for faster, more consistent configuration of multiple
computers. To replicate your setup:
1. Access the Computer Setup Utilities menu.
2. Click File > Save to Diskette. Follow the instructions on the screen.
This requires an internal diskette drive, a MultiBay LS-120 drive, or a portable, external diskette
drive.
3. To replicate the configuration, click File > Restore from Diskette, and follow the instructions
on the screen.
Altiris eXpress and PC Transplant make it easy to replicate the configuration and custom settings
of one PC and copy it to one or more PCs. For more information, visit the hp Web site at

3.3.11 Dual-State Power Button
With Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) enabled for Windows, the power
button can function either as an on/off switch or as a suspend button. The suspend feature does
not completely turn off power, but instead causes the computer to enter a low-power standby.
This allows you to quickly power down without closing applications and to quickly return to the
same operational state without any data loss.
To change the power button's configuration, complete the following steps:
1. Access the Computer Setup menu.
2. Select Power > Energy Saver. Select Minimal or Advanced to turn on the Energy Saver
Options menu.
3. Select Power > Energy Saver Options. Set the power button configuration to either On/Off or
Suspend/Wakeup, as desired.
4. Refer to the Computer Setup (F10) Utility Guide for more detailed information about the
features of Computer Setup.
5. Select File > Save Changes and Exit.
After configuring the power button to function as a suspend button, press the power button to put
the system in a very low power state (suspend). Press the button again to quickly bring the system
out of suspend to full power status. To completely turn off all power to the system, press and hold
the power button for four seconds.
If you have selected the "Blink LED during Energy Save" option in Computer Setup, the
power-on light will blink green once every two seconds while the computer is in suspend. Refer
to the Computer Setup (F10) Utility Guide for more information on using Computer Setup.
