Before entering hibernation mode, your computer saves all necessary information into a file or partition created by PhDISK, then shuts off power to all system components. On the next startup, the computer reloads the information from the PhDISK file or partition and resumes from where you left off. Note: By default, this program is automatically loaded and set up on your computer so you do not need to run this program by yourself. You only need to run this if you upgrade your memory. You can find PhDISK in the \windows\command\ directory. The program accepts the following parameters: Syntax PHDISK [options] where options: u /CREATE (/FILE or /PARTITION) creates the hibernation file or partition u /DELETE (/FILE or /PARTITION) deletes the hibernation file or partition u /INFO displays information on the hibernation file or partition u /REFORMAT PARTITION reformats the existing hibernation file or partition Caution: The Hibernation file is a hidden file named SAVE2DSK.BIN; DO NOT delete or alter this file in any way except by using the PHDISK utility. Improper deletion or alteration of this file could cause you to lose all access to your computer. Chapter 5 Software 71
