Turning off the power
The power can be turned off in one of the following modes: Shut down
(Boot), Hibernation or Standby Mode.
Shut Down mode (Boot mode)
When you turn off the power in Shut Down mode no data is saved and the
computer will boot to the operating system's main screen.
1. If you have entered data, save it to the hard disk or to a floppy disk
drive.
2. Make sure all disk (disc) activity has stopped, then remove the CD/
DVDs or floppy disk drive.
Make sure the Built-in HDD/ODD indicators are off. If you turn off the
power while a disk (disc) is being accessed, you can lose data or damage
the disk (disc).
3. Click start then click Turn Off Computer. From the Turn Off
Computer menu select Turn Off.
4. Turn off the power to any peripheral devices.
Do not turn the computer or devices back on immediately. Wait a moment
to let all capacitors fully discharge.
Hibernation Mode
The hibernation feature saves the contents of memory to the hard disk
when the computer is turned off. The next time the computer is turned on,
the previous state is restored. The hibernation feature does not save the
status of peripheral devices.
■
Save your data. While entering Hibernation Mode, the computer saves
the contents of memory to the HDD. However, for safety sake, it is best
to save your data manually.
■
Data will be lost if you remove the battery or disconnect the AC adaptor
before the save is completed. Wait for the Disk indicator to go out.

Do not install or remove a memory module while the computer is in
Hibernation Mode. Data will be lost.
