The computer uses battery power to enter hibernation mode. Therefore, it reserves some battery power if it is set to enter hibernation mode when a low-battery condition occurs. This can cause the battery operating time to be shorter than the time publicly stated. Do not add or remove memory during hibernation mode. If you do, the computer resumes from hibernation mode without recognizing the changed memory size. To ensure that the computer recognizes the correct memory size, shut down; then restart your operating system. If the computer is powered with battery power, it turns power off to the PC Card when entering hibernation mode. When normal operation resumes, if the PC Card or computer does not operate, restart the application or computer. If you are using some communication cards and your computer is powered with ac power, the computer does not enter hibernation mode. This prevents possible problems from occurring with communication application programs after the computer returns to normal operation. Note: If the communication links are still not reestablished, remove and then reinstall the PC Card before restarting the system or application program. Notes for reinstalling or installing the operating system Install your operating system with Advanced Power Management (APM), and install the ThinkPad Configuration program with the Utility Diskette to use power management mode. Note: To install the software and its device drivers. Installing a new operating system If you are using Windows 98 or Windows 95, APM is automatically installed in your computer. If you are using DOS, APM is automatically installed in your computer. To verify that the computer has installed APM correctly, type POwer at the command prompt and press Enter. If a screen similar to the following appears, APM is successfully installed. 42 IBM ThinkPad 570 Online Book
