Activating and using Hibernate mode
Hibernate (also called save to disk) writes all current memory
(RAM) information to the hard drive, then turns your notebook
completely off. The next time you turn on your notebook, it
reads the memory information from the hard drive and opens
the programs and documents that were open when you
activated Hibernate mode.
To activate Hibernate mode:
1 Click Start, then click Control Panel. The Control Panel
window opens. If your Control Panel is in Category View,
click Performance and Maintenance.
2 Click/Double-click the Power Options icon. The Power
Options Properties dialog box opens.
3 Click the Hibernate tab.
4 Click the Enable hibernation check box, then click
Apply. Hibernate mode is now an option you can select
on the Advanced tab in the Power Options Properties
dialog box and in the Shut Down Windows dialog box.
