Hibernation
Hibernation automatically saves all information in memory to a
Hibernation file on the hard drive and turns off the computer.
Because the computer is off, there is no limit to the amount of time
it can remain in Hibernation. When you turn on the computer again,
your information returns to the screen at the point where
Hibernation was initiated.
The factory default setting initiates Hibernation after one hour of
inactivity and during a critical low-battery condition. You can
manually initiate Hibernation by pressing Fn and the suspend
button.
Hibernation can be used in the following ways:
■ As a safeguard feature to automatically save information when
the computer reaches a critical low-battery condition.
■ As a "bookmark" feature to save your place for longer periods
than can be done in Suspend.
■ To save power by turning off the computer after a specified
period of time in Suspend.
NOTE: Hibernation is not available when the computer is docked in
the expansion bases. Hibernation is also not available when using
other operating systems, such as OS/2 and Microsoft Windows NT.
