function of the Control Panel in Windows. To resume full-on state, you can
press the power button.

3.6 Working with the Built-in HDD
Your notebook computer is equipped with a built-in large capacity 2.5 inch
IDE hard disk drive where you store or install your computer operating
system and all application software programs. You need to format the hard
disk before using. The internal hard disk is normally assigned as Drive C after
formatting. Sometimes divided into two partitions, adding a Drive D. Since
your computer supports different hard disk capacities (up to 60 GB), you also
need to setup the disk type first on your computer’s BIOS SETUP program
before formatting the disk drive. Your computer supports Auto-detect hard
disk type, so you do not need to set it manually. Your dealer should already
have done all of this for you. You can refer to Chapter 6 on how to run the
BIOS SETUP program.
