WIN

For Windows 98:

 In Windows 98, entering suspend mode and resuming normal

operation takes longer than in Windows 95. This performance

difference is a result of Windows 98, not of the features of

ThinkPad.

For more information about Windows 98, see the following site:

http://www.ibm.com/thinkpad/

For technical support, see the following site:

 Three power modes are available: standby mode, suspend

mode, and hibernation mode. You can enter these modes as

follows:

– Fn + F3 standby mode

– Fn + F4 suspend mode

– Fn + F12 hibernation mode

There are other ways to enter suspend mode or hibernation

mode. For example, you can click the Start button at the

bottom left on the Windows 98 screen; then, on the Shut

Down... menu, select Stand by. The computer enters suspend

mode.

Also, you can set the system standby timer in the “Power

Management Properties” window to specify a timeout for

entering suspend mode.

The term

standby

in the Windows 98 window has a

different meaning from the term

standby mode

in this

book.
