Data save in Hibernation Mode When you turn off the power in Hibernation Mode, the computer takes a moment to save the current data in memory to the internal storage drive. After you turn off the computer, and the content of memory has been saved to the internal storage drive, turn off the power to any peripheral devices. Do not turn the computer or devices back on immediately. Wait a moment to let all capacitors fully discharge.

You can also create recovery media and restore the system. The following items are described in this section: Creating Recovery Media Restoring the pre-installed software from your created Recovery Media Restoring the pre-installed software from the Recovery Partition If you choose TOSHIBA Maintenance Utility to erase the internal storage drive, all data including the operating system and recovery partition will be deleted. In that case, you cannot create recovery media or restore the preinstalled software from the recovery partition. Make sure that you have already created recovery media before you start TOSHIBA Maintenance Utility. This recovery media can be used to restore your system after you have erased your internal storage drive. Creating Recovery Media This section describes how to create Recovery Media.

Wait for it to finish, then disable virus detection programs including any software that checks files automatically in the background. User's Manual 2-12
