If you place your computer into either Standby or Hibernation 
mode immediately after the system has resumed from either 
mode, the computer may not properly reenter the selected 
mode.

When resuming your computer from either Standby or 
Hibernation mode, make sure to wait until the system 
completes the process before placing the system back into 
either mode (approximately 1 minute). If the computer does 
not reenter into Standby or Hibernation mode properly, restart 
the computer.

The Standby command puts the computer into a power-
saving mode. Standby holds the current mode of the 
computer in memory so that, when you power on the 
computer, you can continue working from where you left off. 

Factors to consider when choosing Standby:

❖

While in Standby mode, the computer uses some battery 
power. 

❖

Restarting from Standby uses less time and battery power 
than restarting from Turn Off Computer or Hibernation.

❖

When starting up again, the computer returns to the mode 
in which you left it, including all open programs and files 
you were using.

If you power down using the Standby command and the main 
battery discharges fully, your unsaved information will be lost. 
Be sure to save your work first.

To power down the computer using the Standby command, 
click Start, Turn Off Computer, and then Stand By.
