Suspend to
DRAM
) or saved to the hard disk (

), and then the notebook is switched off. After the

If your notebook is in Suspend mode:
•
do not connect any external peripheral devices
•
do not disconnect any external peripheral devices
•
do not attempt to switch it on if the built-in battery is flat
•
do not change or remove the floppy disk, if inserted
•
do not add or remove RAM
•
do not add or remove any PC card.
Suspend to DRAM
The current data is buffered in the memory (DRAM). The data is stored for as long as the notebook
is supplied with energy. If the battery is full, the data is stored for a matter of days. Without a battery
and without a power supply the current data is lost.
Suspend to Disk
The active data can only be saved if sufficient space is available on the hard disk (at least the main
memory size + 2 Mbytes). If the operating system Windows NT or OS/2 Warp is used, a FAT
partition with this space must be created as a drive on the hard disk (see manual for respective
operating system).
Ending Suspend mode
Ê
Switch the notebook on.
The notebook reverts to the status it had prior to switching into Suspend mode.
