Disabling the Suspend/Resume button prevents it 
from being used to put your notebook in Suspend or 
Save-to-Disk mode. The resume function of the button 
cannot be disabled.
P O I N T

The Suspend or Save-to-Disk mode should not be used 
with certain PC Cards. Check your PC Card documenta-
tion for more information.
P O I N T
If your notebook is actively accessing information when 
you enter the Suspend or Save-to-Disk mode, changes 
to open files are not lost. The files are left open and 
memory is kept active during Suspend mode or the 
memory is transferred to the internal hard drive during 
Save-to-Disk mode.
P O I N T
When PC Cards or external devices are in use, Save-
to-Disk mode cannot return to the exact state prior
to suspension, because all of the peripheral devices
will be re-initialized when the system restarts.
P O I N T
The main advantage of using the Save-to-Disk function 
is that power is not required to maintain your data. This 
is particularly important if you will be leaving your note-
book in a suspended state for a prolonged period of 
time. The drawback of using Save-to-Disk mode is that 
it lengthens the power down and power up sequences 
and resets peripheral devices.
