Power Button

The Power button is a "smart" switch, meaning that it recognizes when the system is in Standby
mode in Windows 98/2000* or in Suspend mode in Windows NT**. If in Suspend or Standby
mode, you cannot power off until you press the Power button to resume operation.
* The Advanced Power Management setting, "When I press the power button on my
computer," must be set to Standby.
** The BIOS parameter "System Switch" must be set to "Sleep."
Put the unit in Standby or Suspend mode when you need to be away from your system for a
short period of time and want to return to where you left off. Standby mode in Windows
98/2000 and Suspend mode in Windows NT shuts down all devices in the system while
retaining data and system status.
In Windows 98/2000, go to Start, Shutdown, Standby, to put your system into Standby
!
mode.
