Suspend mode conserves battery power by turning off the microprocessor clock; the display; the hard-disk
drive; the CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, or LS-120 drive module (if installed); the external monitor
connector; the external keyboard (if attached); the parallel port; the serial port; the touch pad; and the
diskette drive.
You can activate suspend mode immediately by pressing <Fn><Esc> (or <Scroll Lock><Esc> on an external
keyboard if the
External Hot Key
option is enabled in the System Setup program).
When your system is in suspend mode, the power indicator is not lit.
Resume from suspend mode by pressing the power button. The computer may take several seconds to
return to normal operation.
NOTE: On resumption from suspend mode, if a password is set, the system displays the password
prompt screen. At the password prompt screen, if you do not enter a password within 2 minutes, the
system returns to suspend mode.
Standby Mode
If your computer is running the Microsoft Windows 98 or Windows 2000 operating system, standby mode
turns off the display, stops the hard-disk drive, and turns off other internal devices so that the computer uses
less battery power. When the computer resumes operation from standby mode, the desktop is restored
exactly as it was before entering standby mode.
NOTICE: The computer saves data to random-access memory (RAM), not to your hard-disk drive,
before entering standby mode. If the computer enters standby mode while running on battery
power, data loss from RAM can occur if the battery discharges completely.
You can activate standby mode by pressing <Fn><Esc>.To resume operation from standby mode, press the
power button.
NOTE: With systems running under ACPI, settings for power management features, such as key
combinations and standby mode are controlled from the
Power Management
or
Power Options
Properties
window in the
Control Panel
. To activate standby mode, make sure that you have made
the appropriate selections from the
Power Management
or
Power Options Properties
window.
Suspend-to-Disk Mode for Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT
Suspend-to-disk (S2D) mode copies all system data to a reserved area—the S2D partition—on the hard-
disk drive and then turns off all power to the computer. When you resume normal operation, the same
programs will be running and the same files will be open that were loaded before you activated this mode.
NOTE: Systems that are ACPI compliant, such as Windows 2000 and some Windows 98 systems do
not support suspend-to-disk mode. ACPI compliant systems support hibernate mode. See
Hibernate
Mode for Windows 98 and Windows 2000
.
Place the computer in S2D mode if you intend to store the computer for longer than 40 days. S2D mode
preserves the configuration information stored in nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM). The reserve
