Put your computer to sleep

    You don't have to shut down your computer every time you step away from it. That would get tiresome. An alternative to shutting down is putting your computer in stand-by or sleep mode. When its in sleep mode, your computer rests until you wake it up again. This saves energy for desktop computers and battery power for laptops.. To triger sleep mode, you can go through the START menu, just as you would to shut down. Click on SHUT DOWN, then when the box pops up, click the option box next to SLEEP instead of SHUT DOWN..     Or you can simply walk away from your desk. After a certain amount of time, the computer will put itself to sleep. The monitor will go blank, but you won't lose what's on your screen. When you come back to your desk, press any key or jiggle your mouse, and your computer will wake up refreshed and ready to go...                                                                                                                                                            Be Sure to Leave Your Comments!
