Heat dispersal *1 To protect against overheating, the processor
has an internal temperature sensor so that, if the
computer's internal temperature rises to a certain
level, the cooling fan is turned on or the
processing speed is lowered. This can be
specified in the Power Options.
Sleep Mode If you have to interrupt your work, you can use
this feature to allow you to turn off power to the

Data is maintained in the computer's main
memory so that when you next turn on the

left off.
Hibernation Mode This feature lets you turn off the power to the
computer without exiting from your software. The
contents of main memory are automatically
saved to the Hard Disk Drive so that when you

Turning off the power section, for more details.
