Powering down the computer
When you power down the computer, you have a number of
options to choose from:
❖ Turn Off or Shut down, which power off the computer
❖ Hibernation, which saves the current operating state to
the hard disk and powers off the computer
❖ Standby, which saves the current operating state to
memory and enters a low power mode
❖ Restart, which restarts the computer
Each option has its advantages.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Before using any of these options to power
down your computer, save your files and make sure the disk
