Getting Started

When you turn off the power in Hibernation Mode, the computer will take a 
moment to save the current data in memory to the hard disk drive. During 

this time, the Hard Disk Drive indicator will glow.
After you turn off the computer, and the content of memory has been saved 

to the hard disk drive, turn off the power to any peripheral devices.

Certain conditions require that you reset the computer, for example if:

■

You change certain computer settings.

■

An error occurs and the computer does not respond to your keyboard 

commands.

If you need to restart the computer, there are three ways this can be 

achieved:

■

Click Start, point to the arrow icon (

) and then select 

Restart from the menu.

■

Press CTRL, ALT and DEL simultaneously (once) to display the menu 

window, then select Restart from the Shut down options.

■

Press the power button and hold it down for five seconds. Once the 

computer has turned itself off, wait between ten and fifteen seconds 

before turning the power on again by pressing the power button.

About 1.5GB hidden partition is allocated on the hard disk drive for the 

System Recovery Options.
This partition stores files which can be used to repair the system in the 

event of a problem.

The System Recovery Options feature is installed on the hard disk when 

shipped from the factory. The System Recovery Options menu includes 

tools to repair startup problems, run diagnostics or restore the system.
See the Windows Help and Support content for more information about 

Startup Repair.
The System Recovery Options can also be run manually to repair 

problems.
