Setting the Suspend or Hibernation Function

If you want to immediately start up and continue an application after shutting down your com-

puter, you can do so by using the suspend or hibernation function.

Shutting Down Using the Suspend or Hibernation Function

Suspend/Hibernation Functions

Differences between the suspend function and hibernation function

The computer should be set for suspend or hibernation ( see the above procedure).

If the power switch is held for over four seconds at the ON position, the power goes

OFF without activation of the suspend or hibernation function.

Do not slide the power switch and hold it for more than four seconds.

If the computer will not be operated for an extended period of time, it is recom-

mended that hibernation mode is used instead of suspend mode.

Using and , select [Power Switch], set [Suspend] or

[Hibernation] with , then press Esc

Suspend/Hibernation Functions

Resuming Operation

If security indicator ( ) is displayed upon sliding the power switch, your password has

been set.

CAUTION

After the display returns, the computer needs a short period of time to reinitialize.

This takes about 15 seconds. Do not shut down or restart Windows during this time,

as this may subsequently cause Windows to operate abnormally.

Do not install or remove peripherals while your computer is in the suspend or hiber-

nation mode; abnormal operation may result.

When operation resumes, serial devices such as a mouse or modem, or your PC Cards

may not work. In such cases, you will need to restart your computer or reinitialize the

individual devices.

Do not use the suspend or hibernation functions when using USB devices.

Set [USB Controller] of [Supervisor Setup] to [Disable] in the Setup Utility when

using the suspend or hibernation functions.

Shutting Down Using the Suspend Function

Fn + F7 or select [Suspend] from the [Start] menu

Suspend Mode

[Suspend] is deleted from the [Start] menu by unchecking [Allow Windows to manage

power use on this computer.] in [Start] - [Settings] - [Control Panel] - [Power] or by

unchecking [Show suspend command on Start menu] in [Advanced].

NOTE

When you select [Suspend] from the [Start] menu:

Turn your computer on

CAUTION

Save all data before powering off your computer.

When restarting from or shutting down to the suspend or hibernation mode, do not touch

the trackball or move the mouse (serial or PS/2 type) if one is connected. There are cases

where these devices will fail to operate; you will have to restart your computer using the

keyboard.

Do not power off during the following periods (you may corrupt your data or file):

• While the FDD indicator ( ), HDD indicator ( ) or CD-ROM indicator ( ) is on.

• While playing/recording audio files.

• While communications software is being used.

Do not use the suspend or hibernation function when using an operating system other than

the one that comes with your computer, the diagnostics program (DIAG45), the Setup

Utility, or when experiencing static electricity or noise.

If you hold down on the Alt , Ctrl or Shift key to enter the suspend or

hibernation mode, after resuming operation, you must press the same key. For example,

if you hold down on the Shift key while sliding the power switch, upon resuming, if

you do not press the Shift key again, only capital letters will result from typing.

If your computer locks up, press the reset button. All data not saved is lost when this

button is pressed.

In the suspend mode, power is consumed. If PC cards (e.g., a modem card) are inserted,

more of that power is consumed. When all power has been consumed, all data at shut-

down is lost since it is retained in memory. We therefore recommend plugging in the AC

adapter when using the suspend function.

Do not use the suspend or hibernation function during the following periods. The sus-

pend or hibernation function, or peripherals may not work.

When a file in external devices such as a CD-ROM drive, external hard disk, or ATA

card is opened, the suspend or hibernation function may not work. In such cases, close

the file.

SCSI cards may not recover after entering the suspend or hibernation mode. If this

occurs, restart the computer.
