104 Learning the Basics Powering down the computer Starting again from Hibernation mode To restart the computer from Hibernation mode, press the power button until the on/off light turns green. The computer returns to the screen you were previously using. If you place the computer in Hibernation mode by closing the display panel, you can start it again by opening the display panel. Using Standby mode Standby mode places the computer into a power-saving mode. Standby holds the current state of the computer in memory so that, when you restart the computer, you can continue working from where you left off. Factors to consider when choosing Standby: ❖ While in Standby mode, the computer uses some battery power. The battery will eventually discharge in Stand by mode. If the battery discharges, your data will be lost if you do not save your work before entering Standby mode. ❖ Restarting from Standby mode uses less time and battery power than restarting from Turn Off or Hibernation mode. ❖ When starting up again, the computer returns to the mode in which you left it, including all open programs and files you were using. If you power down using the Stand by and the battery discharges fully, your information will be lost. Be sure to save your work first. To power down the computer using the Standby command, click Start, Turn off computer, and select Stand By.
