Power
When the Power Supply Is Uncertain
Compaq recommends that Hibernation remain enabled,
especially when the power supply is uncertain. Power may be
interrupted if the notebook is running on external power from an
unreliable source or on battery power from a failing battery pack.
If the power is interrupted while the notebook is in Standby, your
unsaved work may be lost. However, if power is interrupted while
the notebook is in Hibernation, your unsaved work is protected.
When Using Infrared or Drive Media
Standby and Hibernation interfere with the use of infrared
communication and drive media.
If the notebook is in Standby or Hibernation, an infrared
transmission cannot be initiated.
If Standby or Hibernation is accidentally initiated while
a drive medium (such as a diskette, disk, CD, or DVD)
is in use:
Your playback may be interrupted.
You may see a popup warning: “Putting the computer
into Hibernation or Standby may stop the playback. Do
you want to continue?” Select No.
Resume from Hibernation or Standby by sliding the
power switch.
Audio and video may resume or you may need to restart
the drive medium.
Ä
CAUTION:
To prevent possible video and audio degradation and
loss of audio or video playback functionality, do not initiate Standby
or Hibernation while using drive media.
