Suspend

Save To RAM

Specifies the type of rest mode your computer enters:

 

 

Mode:

Save To Disk

Save to RAM: Saves power by turning off the

 

 

 

microprocessor and all devices except system

 

 

 

memory and controller, and video memory and

 

 

 

controller.

 

 

 

Save To Disk: Provides the greatest power-saving

 

 

 

capabilities by essentially turning off your

 

 

 

computer. In the save to disk mode, all system

 

 

 

logic (except for your computer wakeup circuitry

 

 

 

and battery charger) is turned off. During save to

 

 

 

disk mode, the system and video memory are

 

 

 

saved to the hard drive and are restored when

 

 

 

your computer resumes from rest.

 

 

 

When the computer enters save to disk mode, it

 

 

 

will not resume normal operation at a specified

 

 

 

time no matter how the Resume On Time field is

 

 

 

set.

 

Hard Disk

 

Sets the amount of time the hard disk needs to be inactive

 

 

Timeout:

 

before it is turned off.

 

Resume On

 

Enables the computer to resume operation from rest

 

 

Modem Ring:

 

mode in the event of modem communication. The

 

 

 

computer will resume only if the Suspend Mode field is

 

 

 

set to Save to RAM, not Save To Disk. The default

 

 

 

setting is Off. To enable this feature, AC adapter should

 

 

 

be plugged into the computer.

 

Resume On

 

Enables the computer to resume operation from rest

 

 

Time:

 

mode at a scheduled time. The computer will resume only

 

 

 

if the Suspend Mode field is set to Save to RAM, not

 

 

 

Save To Disk. If you set this field to On, you must set the

 

 

 

Resume Time field as well. The default setting is Off. AC

 

 

 

adapter should be plugged in to work this feature.
