The system freezes or
the screen goes dark.
The system’s power saving features have timed-out. Use the AC/DC adapter, press the sleep (Fn
+ F4) key combination, or press the power button if no LEDs are lit.
The system never goes
into a power saving
mode.
Power Options features are not enabled. Go to the Windows Power Options menu and enable
the features you prefer (see “System Power Options” on page 3 - 6). Make sure you have
enabled Hibernate mode from the control panel.
The computer stops
responding during stand
by or hibernation
operations, or when you
try to use the Shut Down
command.
The computer may stop responding when you put it into (or resume from) Stand By or Hibernate,
or when you shut down. This error is caused by power management within Windows XP, when
applied to a PC Camera attached to the internal USB hub.
