Your computer includes a Toshiba Power Saver utility that 
allows you to change many of your default power settings. 
You can enable hibernation through this utility. 

To power down the computer using the Hibernation option, 
click Start, select Turn off computer. When you hold down 
the Shift key, the Standby button changes to Hibernate. Hold 
down the Shift key, then select Hibernate.

The computer saves the state of the system, including all open 
programs and files, to the hard disk, and then powers down 
completely.

TECHNICAL NOTE: Toshiba recommends that you always have 
the Hibernation option enabled. Hibernation is the function 
that causes your system to save anything you have in short-
term memory to the hard disk drive should your battery fail. If 
Hibernation is not enabled and your battery discharges, you 
will lose data.

Setting a password leaves your computer secure so that 
nobody can access your files. You must enter the password 
before you can work on your computer.

Toshiba supports the several types of passwords on your 
computer:

❖

An instant password — Secures your open programs and 
files when leaving the computer temporarily 

❖

A power-on password — Prevents unauthorized users 
from starting or restarting the computer

❖

A supervisor password — Prohibits unauthorized users 
from accessing certain functions such as Toshiba
