Powering down the computer
Pushing the power button before shutting down the Windows®
operating system could cause you to lose your work. Make
sure the system indicator panel’s disk light and the drive-in-
use light are off. If you turn off the power while a disk is being
accessed, you may lose data or damage the disk and/or drive.
When you power down the computer, you have a number of
options to choose from:
Turn Off or Shut down, which power off the computer
Hibernation, which saves the current operating state to
the hard disk and powers off the computer
Standby, which saves the current operating state to
memory and enters a low power mode
Restart, which restarts the computer
