Power Management
42 User’s Guide
There are two necessary conditions for the computer to
enter Hibernation mode:
❑
The Hibernation file created by PHDISK must be present
and valid. See “PhDISK” on page 71
❑
Heuristic Power Management must be set to [ENABLED]
In this situation, there are four ways to enter Hibernation
mode:
❑
Pressing the Hibernation hot key Fn-F4
❑
Allowing the Hibernation Timeout to elapse without any
system activity
❑
Experiencing a battery low condition for about a minute.
With the Battery Low Suspend parameter in Setup set to
[ENABLED]
❑
Allowing the operating system power saving modes to
invoke it
To exit Hibernation mode, press the power switch. The
computer also resumes from Hibernation mode if the
Resume Timer is set and matched.
Note: If the computer beeps but does not enter
Hibernation mode after pressing the Hibernation hot key,
it means the operating system will not allow the computer
to enter the power saving mode.
Warning: Do not change any devices (such as add
memory or swap hard disks) when the computer is in
Hibernation mode.
