If youre going to be away
from your computer but
want to leave the power on,
you can let your computer
go to sleep. This process
allows you to run
programmes while your
computer goes into a low-
power state, which saves
energy. However, some
softwaresuch as DVD
software actively playing a
DVD may prevent the
system from going to sleep.
You can wake your computer
by moving the mouse, by
clicking a mouse button, or
by pressing any of the
keyboard buttons.
You can change the amount of
time that passes before your
computer goes to sleep. See
the My PresarioLearning

CD
for instructions.
