Learning the Basics
Powering down the computer
To set up the connection, use the Dial-Up Networking Wizard:
1
Click Start and point to Programs.
2
Point to Accessories, then to Communications, and click 
Dial-Up Networking.
CAUTION: When you are connected to a network, don’t use 
the Windows Millennium Edition Standby or Hibernate 
commands. They may disrupt your network connection.
Powering down the computer
When you power down the computer, you have three options to 
choose from: Shut down, Hibernation and Standby. Each method 
has its advantages. 
Shut down command
The Shut down command shuts the computer down completely. 
When you start up again, the computer runs a self-test and loads 
the operating system. You must open any programs and files you 
want to use. 
Factors when choosing Shut down:
No power is used while the computer is shut down. This is the 
most efficient mode if you will be away from your computer 
for an extended time.
Restarting from Shut down uses the most time and battery 
power.
When starting up again, the system does not automatically 
open programs and files you were previously using.
