Replicating Original 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 the setup:
1. Access the Computer Setup Utilities menu.
2. Click File
#
Save to Floppy. 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 Floppy, and follow the instructions
on the screen.

Dual-State Power Button
With Advanced Power Management (APM) enabled in Windows 95 or Advanced Configuration
and Power Interface (ACPI) enabled for Windows 98, and Windows 2000, the power
button can
function either as an on/off switch or as a suspend button. The suspend feature does not turn off
power altogether, 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.
✎
The power button suspend feature is not functional in Windows NT 4.0. Under
windows NT, the power switch will act as a normal on/off button even if listed as
“Suspend” in F10 Setup. If you attempt to place the system into the suspend
mode, you could lose valuable data.
To change the power button’s configuration, complete the following steps:
1. Access the Computer Setup menu.
2. Select Power
#
Energy Saver. Set the power button configuration to either Advanced or
Minimal 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.
For more information about the various screen and configuration options, refer to Section 2.1.1,
“Using Computer Setup Utilities.”
4. 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 once every second while the computer is in
suspend. Refer to Section 2.1.1, “Using Computer Setup Utilities” for more
information.
