Power-Saving Operation
If the system is running Windows 98 or Windows 2000, you can put it in
sleep mode (a power-saving state) by pressing and immediately releasing
the power button on the front of the system unit. The sleep mode
conserves energy when you are going to be away from your system for
more than 15 minutes.
Take care to press and immediately release the
power button to enter the sleep mode. Avoid pressing and holding in the
power button longer than three seconds or you may turn off power and
possibly lose data from any open applications.
The system also goes into sleep mode when it has been inactive, if the
power management has been enabled, and an inactivity timeout has been
enabled. To see if power management is enabled, click
Start , point to
Settings , click Control Panel , and double click Power Management .
Click the Power tab and check the settings. (Also see Chapter 3,
“Configuring Your System,” for setting other power management
functions.)
When the system goes into sleep mode, it automatically saves data and
system status and then shuts off power to all possible components. Sleep
mode lets you save power without first saving your work.
An amber sleep lamp and blank screen indicates that the system is in sleep
mode. Press a key or move the mouse to resume system operation where
you left off.
