Sleep Mode (ACPI)

If ACPI is installed, all power management functions are handled by the Windows operating system. In this setup, you do not need to set timeout values for devices before they enter a power-saving mode.

Sleep mode may be one of three computer power saving modes: standby, hibernation or power off. Windows automatically determines which of these modes to enter.

To enter Sleep mode under ACPI:

TPress the Sleep hotkey Fn-F4

TAllow the idle times for devices and the computer determined by Windows 98 to elapse

How to exit Sleep mode depends upon which power-saving mode the computer is in.
