Power

Selecting a Power Source

The notebook can run on internal power from a battery pack or

on external power from an AC adapter and other devices. The

following table describes the best power source for general tasks.

Task Use This Power Source:

Work in most software

applications.

■Charged battery pack in the

notebook.

■External power, such as an

AC adapter or optional

HP Notebook Expansion Base.

Charge or calibrate a battery

pack in the notebook.

External power, such as an

AC adapter or optional HP Notebook

Expansion Base.

✎For more details, refer to the

“Battery Packs” chapter in

the

Hardware Guide

this CD.

Install or modify system

software or write to any

drive media.

External power, such as an

AC adapter or optional HP Notebook

Expansion Base.

Power

Standby, Hibernation and Shutdown

This section describes Standby, Hibernation, and shutdown,

and explains when to implement them. Standby and Hibernation

are energy-saving features that can be initiated by you or by

the system.

The amount of time a battery pack can hold a charge to support

Standby or Hibernation varies by notebook configuration and

the condition of the battery pack.

Standby

Standby reduces power to system components that are not in use.

When Standby is initiated, your work is saved in random access

memory (RAM) and the screen is cleared. When you resume

from Standby, your work returns to the screen where you left off.

■Saving your work before initiating Standby is not usually

necessary, but it is a recommended precaution.

■When the notebook is in Standby, the power/Standby light

blinks.

Hibernation

Hibernation saves system memory to the hard drive, takes a

snapshot of the notebook image, and shuts down the notebook.

When you resume from Hibernation, your work returns to the

screen exactly as you left it.

ÄCAUTION: If the configuration of the notebook system is changed during

Hibernation, resuming operation from Hibernation may not be possible.

When the notebook is in Hibernation:

■Do not add or remove memory modules.

■Do not insert or remove the hard drive.

■Do not connect or disconnect external devices.

■Do not insert or remove any drive media.

■Do not change the notebook configuration.

Power

Software Guide 1–3

ÄCAUTION: To prevent loss of data during a low-battery condition,

do not disable Hibernation when the battery pack is in a low-battery

condition.

ÄCAUTION: If Hibernation is disabled, the system does not

automatically save your system memory when the notebook reaches

a critical low-battery condition.

When possible, save your work before initiating Hibernation so

that no data is lost. Do not change the notebook configuration

during Hibernation.

If a power-on password has been set, the password must be

entered to resume from Hibernation. If you cannot resume from

Hibernation when power is restored to the system, you will be

prompted to delete the restoration data and proceed with system

boot. Unsaved data will be lost.

Hibernation is enabled by default, but can be disabled. To verify

that Hibernation is enabled, select Start > Control Panel >

Performance and Maintenance > Power Options. Then select the

Hibernate tab. Make sure that the Enable Hibernation check box

is selected.

Shutdown

Shutdown turns off the notebook. Whether to leave a battery pack

in the notebook or in storage depends on how you work.

■Leaving the battery pack in the notebook enables the battery

pack to charge whenever the notebook is connected to

external power and also protects your work during a power

outage.

■A battery pack in the notebook discharges more quickly, even

when the notebook is turned off, than a battery pack that has

been removed from the notebook and is stored in a cool, dry

location.

1–4 Software Guide

Power

Choosing Standby, Hibernation or

Shutdown

Your choice of Standby, Hibernation, or shutdown will depend on

how you work. The amount of time a battery pack can support

Standby or Hibernation or hold a charge varies by notebook

configuration and the condition of the battery pack. A fully

charged new battery pack can typically support Standby for up to

48 hours and Hibernation for several weeks.

When Resuming After a Short Interval

Initiate Standby for shorter intervals of inactivity and Hibernation

for longer intervals or for more power conservation.

■Initiating Standby clears the screen and uses less power than

leaving the notebook on, and your work returns quickly to

the screen when you resume from Standby.

■Initiating Hibernation clears the screen and uses much less

power than Standby. Returning to work saved in Hibernation

takes longer than returning to work saved in Standby, but it is

faster than returning to your place manually after restarting

the notebook.

When Resuming After a Week or More

If the notebook will be idle for a week or more, shut down the

notebook to extend the life of an inserted battery pack. If you

remove the battery pack during this time, store it in a cool, dry

location.

When External Power Supply Is Disrupted

or Uncertain

If an external power supply is uncertain or disrupted—for

example, because of an electrical storm—save your work, and

then initiate Hibernation or shut down the notebook.
