Standby/Hibernation Functions
Before entering the standby or hibernation mode
z
Save any unsaved data and save any files you may be editing.
z
When a file in an external device such as a CD/DVD drive, external hard disk, or ATA card
is opened, close the file.
z
Even when a password has been set in the Setup Utility, [Enter Password] does not
appear when the computer resumes from the standby or hibernation mode. If you want to
display the password input screen for security reasons, set the Windows log on password,
click [start] - [Control Panel] - [Performance and Maintenance] - [Power Options] -
[Advanced], and add checkmark for [Prompt for password when computer resumes from
standby]. (The checkmark is added in the settings at the time of purchase.) If you are
particularly concerned about security (e.g., confidentiality and prevention of data theft),
we recommend that you do not use the standby or hibernation mode, and turn off the
power instead.
z
Do not enter either the standby or hibernation mode under the following conditions, as
you may corrupt your data or file, the standby or hibernation function may not work, or the
computer (or peripherals) may fail to work properly:
• While the hard disk drive indicator or SD memory card indicator is on, or while the
DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive indicator is blinking (accessing drive or card)
• When playing/recording audio files and displaying images (such as MPEG files)
• When playing a DVD-Video
• When writing to CD-R/RW
• When using communications software or the network function (except when the Wake
Up from LAN function is in use)
After resuming from hibernation mode or standby mode, the computer may not work
properly, or may not be able to connect to the network.
• When using peripheral devices
If these devices fail to work properly, restart the computer.
• At the time of purchase, the computer is set so that the computer cannot enter standby
or hibernation mode if a disk formatted with B’s CLiP is inserted into the DVD-ROM &
CD-R/RW drive (while the
icon is displayed on the notification area). In this case,
eject the disk in advance.
