Learning the Basics Powering down the computer 93 ❖ When starting up again, the system does not automatically open programs and files you were previously using. Hibernation command Hibernation mode shuts the computer down completely, but it first saves the current state of the computer to the hard disk. Since Hibernation mode does not require power to maintain the saved information, the system settings are retained indefinitely. Restoring information from the hard drive takes longer than restoring it from memory. When you start up again, the computer runs a self-test, loads the operating system, and then returns to the state in which you left it. Factors to consider when choosing Hibernation mode: ❖ While in Hibernation mode, the computer uses no battery power. ❖ Because the state of the system is held on the hard disk, no data is lost if the battery discharges. ❖ Restarting from Hibernation mode uses less time and battery power than restarting from Turn Off. ❖ Restarting from Hibernation mode uses a little more time and battery power than restarting from Standby because information is being retrieved from the hard disk instead of memory. ❖ When starting up again, the computer returns to the state in which you left it, including all open programs and files you were using.
