Hibernation

Hibernation is a useful power-saving feature to conserve battery power. As
the name suggests “hibernation”, the unit saves all the running applica-
tions and documents before it shuts down. When the unit is awake from
Hibernation mode, it will automatically reload the running applications on
desktop exactly as before. This feature allows the unit to be turned off to
save the battery power, and resume to working condition in few seconds.

To enable the Hibernation feature, from Desktop go to Start > Control
Panel > Power Options > Hibernation. Click then
. Refer to Windows Help for detail.
