Hardware, Utilities and Options

 

 

 

 

Heat dispersal *1

To protect against overheating, the processor has

 

 

an internal temperature sensor so that, if the

 

 

computer's internal temperature rises to a certain

 

 

level, the cooling fan is turned on or the

 

 

processing speed is lowered. This can be

 

 

specified in the Power Options.

 

 

 

If the processor's temperature reaches an unacceptably high level with either setting, the computer will automatically shut down to prevent any damage - in this instance any unsaved data in memory will be lost.

Hibernation Mode

This feature lets you turn off the power to the

 

computer without exiting from your software. The

 

contents of main memory are automatically

 

saved to the hard disk drive so that when you

 

next turn the power on again, you can continue

 

working right where you left off. Refer to the

 

Turning on the power section in Chapter 1,

 

Getting Started, for more details.

 

 

Sleep Mode

If you have to interrupt your work, you can use

 

this feature to allow you to turn off power to the

 

computer without exiting from your software.

 

Data is maintained in the computer's main

 

memory so that when you next turn on the power,

 

you can continue working right where you left off.

 

 

USB Wakeup

This function restores the computer from Sleep

function

Mode depending on the external devices

 

connected to the USB ports.

 

For example, if a mouse or USB keyboard is

 

connected to a USB port, moving the

 

mouse/keyboard will wakeup the computer. The

 

"USB Wakeup function" operates under Windows

 

7 operating system and it works for all USB ports.

 

 

TOSHIBA PC Health

The TOSHIBA PC Health Monitor application

Monitor

proactively monitors a number of system

 

functions such as power consumption, battery

 

health and system cooling, informing you of

 

significant system conditions. This application

 

recognizes the system and individual component

 

serial numbers and will track specific activities

 

related to their usage.

 

Refer to Appendix F, TOSHIBA PC Health

 

Monitor.
