timeout periods are available. If you do not use the keyboard for the specified amount of time, the computer turns off the LCD screen, hard disk drive, or the entire system to save battery power. The next time you press a key, the system comes back on. It’s a good idea to always press the Shift key when you want to resume activity on the computer.
