Enabling Hibernation If you have disabled Hibernation, you can enable it again through the Hibernation tab in Power Properties (click Start Æ Control Panel Æ double-click Power Æ Power Properties). When you enable Hibernation this way, the system uses a certain amount of hard disk space necessary for Hibernation to take place. Initiating Hibernation Hibernation can be initiated by you or by the system. When Hibernation occurs, the system: s clears the screen. s saves all current information in memory to the hard disk. s turns off the computer. In Windows 95 or later, you can initiate Hibernation by pressing Fn+Suspend button at any time and from within any application. System-initiated Hibernation takes place under the following conditions: s when the computer is on and unattended, and a critical low battery condition occurs. s when the computer is in Suspend, and a critical low battery condition occurs. Exiting Hibernation To exit Hibernation and resume work: 1. Install a fully charged battery pack or connect to an external power source. 2. Turn on the computer by sliding the power switch. The computer exits Hibernation. The information that was saved to the hard disk returns to the screen at the point where Hibernation was initiated.
