Hibernation mode
The hibernation feature saves the contents of memory to the hard disk when the
computer is turned off. The next time the computer is turned on, the previous state
is restored. The hibernation feature does not save the status of peripheral devices.
CAUTIONS: 1. Save your data. While entering hibernation mode, the
computer saves the contents of memory to the HDD.
However, for safety sake, it is best to save your data
manually.
2. Data will be lost if you remove the battery or discon-
nect the AC adaptor before the save is completed. Wait
for the
Fixed HDD/ODD
indicator to go out.
3. Do not install or remove a memory module while the
computer is in hibernation mode. Data will be lost.
Benefits of hibernation
The hibernation feature provides the following benefits:
◆
Saves data to the hard disk when the computer automatically shuts down
because of a low battery.
NOTE: For the computer to shut down in hibernation mode, the hibernation
feature must be enabled in two places in TOSHIBA Power Saver: the
Hibernate window and the Battery Alarm item of the Alarm window.
Otherwise, the computer will shut down in Standby mode. If battery power
becomes depleted, data saved in Standby will be lost.
◆
You can return to your previous working environment immediately when you
turn on the computer.
◆
Saves power by shutting down the system when the computer receives no input
or hardware access for the duration set by the System hibernate feature.
◆
You can use the panel power off feature.
