Power-Saving Operation
If the system is running Windows 95 or Windows 98, you can
put it in Sleep mode (a power-saving state) by lightly
pressing and immediately releasing the power button on the
front of your unit. The Sleep mode is a convenient way of
conserving energy when you are going to be away from your
system for a short period of time.
The system also goes into Sleep mode when it has been
inactive, if the power management has been enabled in BIOS,
and an inactivity timeout has been enabled. (See Chapter 3,
“Configuring Your System” for information on setting power
management functions.)
