Manual Power Management

You can manually initiate Suspend-to-disk mode at any time in one of two ways:

Use the O/S that supports the Suspend function.

Press down the power button and release it in less than 4 seconds with the system on. Repeat the action to wake up the system under Suspend mode.

NOTE:

1.The suspend-to-disk partition may not exist on your hard disk. Check with your dealer to know if it exists. If there is no suspend-to-disk partition, you cannot use the Suspend-to-disk feature.

2.The OVMAKFIL utility allows you to create the suspend-to-disk partition. (Refer to section on “OVMAKFIL Utility” for information.)

Suspend-to-disk is a very useful feature. People frequently open many applications when they use computers. It takes some time to get all these applications open and running, and normally they all have to be closed before the system can be turned off.

When you use the Suspend-to-disk feature, you do not have to close the applications. The computer stores the state of your computer to a file on the hard disk and then shut down. The next time you turn on your computer, you return to exactly where you left off.
