disk 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 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 Stand by 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.
For more information about the Hibernation command, see
“Using Hibernation” on page 95
. For information about
going into Hibernation mode more quickly, see
Hibernation mode more quickly” on page 96

Stand By command
The Stand by puts the computer into a power-saving mode.
Stand by 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 when choosing Stand by:
❖
While in Stand by 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 Stand by
mode.
