Well its hard to asess because ethier or, could work. Personally i leave my computer in standby mode most of the time. But there are some times that you will need to shut down and it is a healthly choice to shut down the computer every now and then like maybe every second day? Now another thing is, if you are an IT student that needs to run from class to class evry hour i'd suggest just leaving it in standby mode because it takes way too long to boot up after you shut down.
When in standby mode, pressing the power button momentarily should bring the PC back from the standby state. - Neeraj Sharma
stand by, ( on a computer ) means that they are working or improving the site. it will say please stand by. stand by on a phone or anything else, mean please wait, but in a more adult - like, and more formal. :)
This signals that the computer is in a standby or "sleep" mode. Most parts of the hardware are turned off by the BIOS until a key on the keyboard is pressed or the mouse is moved.
It's not just set to overnight, it's set to a specific time. The basic setting is 30 minutes before a system goes into hibernate/standby. This can be changed in the power settings of your computer.
The answer is "enabled". If power management was not enabled the everything would be running normally.
hibernate mode
Many laptop owners are not aware that hibernate and standby mode are not the same. Instead of using the standby feature, more battery is saved when hibernate is selected. Hibernate shuts down the computer, but it also saves the current state of the computer. Battery life is extended, while all your work is put in limbo.
Sleep mode.
Always turn it off, althought computers have standby and hibernate modes, they're not designed to be run constantly, even in a low power mode, severs and the like are the only computers that should be left on all the time.
Putting your computer in standby mode suspends all process on your computer, so no.
Standby, power mode
Do you mean "hybernate" or "system standby"? If so, to to "my computer", click on "control panel" then "Display", "Screen saver" then "power". At that point you can either change power schemes or hibernate.
duplex system
When you tap the sleep key, the computer goes into a low power standby mode. Tapping the wake key brings the computer back up to a ready state. It is used instead of shutting down the computer because it is a faster way to get the computer up and running. Also, if you have a program running, there is no need to shut that off as it will be ready for you, where you left off when the computer wakes up. It is very similar to the 'hibernate' feature of many computers. Both sleep and hibernate are low power standby modes. I never use sleep mode because I see no advantage to being able to start up my PC that much faster than if I had just shut it down.
run, the computer is doing calculations normally (maximum power consumption)sleep, the computer is not doing calculations but maintains DRAM refresh to retain data internally (low power consumption)hibernate, the computer is not doing calculation but saved DRAM to a disk file so that DRAM refresh can also be stopped (minimal power consumption, often the computer actually turns off in this mode)
No. Sleep mode is a low power standby mode. No processes are taking place while in sleep mode.
When you set your system into Hibernate Mode you're programs will load up quicker than when you do a normal shutdown. Hibernate mode writes an image of what you're currently working on to a special file on your hard drive, and then shuts your computer almost completely off. It takes a bit longer than Standby, since it needs to write to your hard drive. Hibernate also takes a bit longer to resume, since you must go through essentially the normal boot process, although in Windows XP your computer wakes faster from Hibernate than in previous versions of Windows. The advantage is that you can leave your laptop in Hibernate mode for days without any ill effect. When you start it back up, you'll see everything exactly as you left it. Hibernate is the perfect mode for shutting down for the night or even the weekend.
