Hardware, Utilities and Options

This section describes the pre-installed utilities that come with the 

computer and details how to start them. For further information on their 

operation, you may refer to each utility's online manual, help files or 

README.TXT file (if applicable). 

When battery power is exhausted to the point that 

computer operation cannot be continued, the 

system automatically enters Hibernation Mode 

and shuts itself down. This can be specified in the 

Power Options. 

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.

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 

 section in Chapter 1, 

for more details.

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 function This function restores the computer from Sleep 

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, clicking the mouse 

button or pressing the keyboard will wakeup the 

computer.
