HDPREPEZ Utility
The power management state referred to as Save-To-File (STF) saves the system’s
current working environment to the system’s hard drive, then powers down the system
to conserve battery power. The HDPREPEZ function creates a file large enough (256
MB) to accommodate the entire memory contents of your system. The STF file is
created the first time that you run your system’s setup program.
Note
For more details about the HDPREPEZ Utility, see the HDPREPEZ.TXT file in
the NECUTILS/HDPREP directory.
