98 Learning the Basics Different ways to turn the computer on and off Different ways to turn the computer on and off Instead of turning on your computer by pressing the power button, you can: ❖ Set the computer to turn on automatically at a time you designate. This option is helpful for transferring files by modem at night. You can set the computer to turn on and send or receive the files while you are asleep. This option is called Auto Power On. ❖ Turn the computer on and off by opening and closing the display panel. This option is a convenient way to turn on the power, and prevents you from closing the display panel while the computer is on. This option is called Panel Power On/Off. NOTE: Pushing the power button before shutting down the Windows® operating system could cause you to lose your work. Make sure the system indicator panel's disk light and the drive-in-use light are off. If you turn off the power while a disk is being accessed, you may lose data or damage the disk and/or drive. Powering down the computer When you power down the computer, you have three options to choose from: Turn off computer, Standby, and Hibernation. TECHNICAL NOTES: Before using any of these options to power down your computer, save your files and make sure the disk activity lights are off. If you change your mind and decide to continue working after all, wait a few seconds before turning the computer on again.
