Using the Computer

Standby Mode

When the computer is in standby mode, it goes into a low-power state and the monitor is blank, as if it’s turned off. The next time you use the computer, any programs, folders, and documents that were open before you put the computer into standby are available again. With standby mode, you can save electricity without having to wait for the PC to go through the normal startup routine when you turn it on.

Standby mode also allows faxes to come through to the computer, and it enables the PC to automatically retrieve e-mail messages and download information from the Internet, if you have programmed the computer to do so.

To Manually Enter Standby Mode

1.Click Start on the taskbar.

2.Click Turn Off Computer.

3.Click Standby.

If the computer does not work properly when you wake it from standby, reset the computer: Press and hold the Power button on the front of the PC for approximately 5 seconds until the system turns off. Then turn the computer back on.

Using the Power button to reset the system is not recommended and should be used only as a last resort.
