Using the PC
Standby Mode
When the PC is in standby mode, it goes into a
low-power state and the monitor is blank. The next
time you use the PC, any programs, folders, and
documents that were open before you put the PC
into standby are available again.
Standby mode also allows faxes to come through
to the PC, and it enables the PC to automatically
retrieve e-mail messages and download
information from the Internet, if you have
programmed the PC to do so.
1. Click Start on the taskbar.
2. Click Turn Off Computer.
3. Click Stand By.
To wake from standby, move the mouse or press a
key on the keyboard. If the PC does not work
properly when you wake it from standby, reset the
PC: Press and hold the Power button on the front of
the PC for approximately 5 seconds until the system
turns off, and then turn the PC back on.
Using the Power button to reset the system is
not recommended and should be used only
as a last resort.
