System Management 105
Hibernate Mode
(
Power Management or Manual Method
)
When hibernation is used, your computer turns off and when you power up again,
everything is restored exactly as you left it—including programs and documents you
may not have saved or closed. Everything in memory gets saved to the HDD, and the
monitor and hard disk get turned off.
If You Reinstall Windows:
You should re-establish hibernate in power options by opening
Power
Options Properties
window and click on the
Hibernate
tab then click
“Enable Hibernation”.
Frequent Interruptions:
If you experience frequent interruptions, you might also consider putting your
computer into automatic hibernation after a specified number of minutes using
the power management options.
Standby Mode
(
Power Management or Manual Method
)
Standby is used mainly for conserving battery power in your notebook computer. It
also gives you the benefit of getting right back to your work without waiting for the
computer to restart. Standby turns off your monitor and hard disks, placing your entire
system in a low-power state. When you return to your computer, restores your desktop
exactly as you left it. It is recommended that you do not enter standby mode with less
than 20% battery power.
