What is Quick Resume Mode?

When the HP Digital Entertainment Center is in Quick Resume mode:

The display is turned off, audio is muted, and the PC is kept fully operational but in a reduced-power setting.

The PC fan is always running.

The PC can still perform tasks such as recording scheduled TV programs or stream video and music files.

The desktop can be displayed almost instantly when you press the sleep button on your remote control.
