Stand By
Stand By puts your computer in a special mode that saves power without
shutting down completely. Your work and all open programs are saved to
your Notebook’s RAM while in standby mode. This helps you get back to work
(or play) more quickly when you return to your Notebook. However, if the
Notebook loses power completely (due to a power outage, for example), any
unsaved work will be lost. To bring your Notebook out of standby mode,
simply press any key on your keyboard, or press and release the main power
button on the front of your Notebook.
