Starting your computer over a network Your computer can "wake up" and be started remotely over a network if it has a properly configured network connection to either the integrated Ethernet or a network adapter with Wake on LAN.4 For more information, see "Wake on LAN" on page 48 and "Setting the startup sequence" on page 75. Shutting down your computer When you are ready to turn off your computer, follow the shutdown procedure for your operating system to prevent the loss of unsaved data or damage to your software programs. See your operating-system documentation for instructions. Some operating systems allow you to set up the computer to automatically turn off after the operating system has shut down. If you are not using this feature, you must manually turn off the computer by pressing and releasing the power switch. Important Please observe the following: If you plan to restart your computer, do not press Ctrl+Alt+Del to shut down the computer while the operating system is running. Instead, follow the shutdown procedure for your operating system, turn off the computer by pressing and releasing the power switch, wait a few seconds until all the status-indicator lights are off, and then restart your computer. The power switch normally operates with a quick touch. However, in some circumstances the computer might not immediately power off with a quick touch. If this happens, hold the power switch down for approximately five seconds, and the computer will then power off. 4 The integrated Ethernet feature is standard on some models only. 36 Using Your Personal Computer
