Power Hibernation saves your work to a hibernation file on the hard drive and then shuts down the computer. When hibernation is complete, the power lights are turned off. When you restore from hibernation, your work is returned to the screen where you left off. If a power-on password has been set, the password must be entered to restore from hibernation. Restoring from hibernation takes a little longer than resuming from standby but is much faster than returning to your place manually after restarting the computer. Ä CAUTION: To reduce the risk of information loss, save your work before initiating hibernation. When the computer is running on battery power, hibernation is initiated by default after 30 minutes of computer inactivity or whenever the computer reaches a critical low-battery condition. Determining Whether the Computer Is Off or in Hibernation To determine whether the computer is turned off or in hibernation, press the power button. ■ If the computer is in hibernation, the computer restores from hibernation and your work is returned to the screen. ■ If the computer is off, Windows loads.

Hibernation saves your work to a hibernation file on the hard
drive and then shuts down the computer. When hibernation is
complete, the power lights are turned off. When you restore from
hibernation, your work is returned to the screen where you left
off. If a power-on password has been set, the password must be
entered to restore from hibernation. Restoring from hibernation
takes a little longer than resuming from standby but is much faster
than returning to your place manually after restarting the
computer.

CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of information loss, save your work
before initiating hibernation.
When the computer is running on battery power, hibernation is
initiated by default after 30 minutes of computer inactivity or
whenever the computer reaches a critical low-battery condition.
