I recently requested some information about the difference between hibernate
and standby on a pc, on another newsgroup.
i got this advice:
RTFM. Press the F1 key, and ask Windows Help.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I then said when i typed in i got no entry for either hibernate or
standby.
i have xp and used F1 in both windows and outlook express and also
the help icon in the toolbar on both. then i tried the 'power options
overview' as was suggested by the respondent below. but still cannot locate
this information or anything similar. would anyone be able to advise a
novice please. how did he find this response from F1 windows help and i
could not?

I typed in Hibernate and got these:

Pick a task
c.. Automatically put your computer into hibernation
d.. Automatically put your computer on standby
e.. Manually put your computer into hibernation
f.. Manually put your computer on standby
g.. Password-protect your computer during standby or hibernation
h.. Common tasks: Power Options
i.. Change the elapsed time before your computer automatically goes on
standby
Overviews, Articles and Tutorials
j.. Managing power on a portable computer
k.. Power Options overview
l.. Glossary
m.. Glossary
Now go back and try again. Hint: I'd suggest the "Power Options overview"
(geez...where DO these people come from...)
and standby on a pc, on another newsgroup.
