Critical Points
Which of the two destinations suspending saves the data in the computer to depends on the
BIOS setup Power menu setting as follows.
System RAM:
When “Suspend” is set with the BIOS setup Power menu “Suspend Mode” item, the data
is saved to system RAM. Power for the system RAM is supplied from the AC power supply
if the AC adaptor is connected or from the battery if the AC adaptor is not connected.
Save to Disk area:
If “Save to Disk” is set with the BIOS setup Power menu “Suspend Mode” item, the data is
written to the Save to Disk area on the hard disk.
If you hold down the [Fn] key while pressing the SUS/RES button, the data is saved to the
hard disk regardless of the Power menu setting.
