Help & Support

For more information about hibernate mode, click Start, then click Help and Support. Type the phrase hibernate in the Search box, then click the arrow.

Hibernate (also called save to disk) writes all current memory (RAM) information to the hard drive, then turns your computer completely off. The next time you turn on your computer, it reads the memory information from the hard drive and opens the programs and documents that were open when you activated Hibernate mode.
