Turning On the Computer

Now you are ready to begin using your computer. To turn it on simply press the pow-

er button on the front panel.

When the computer is on, you can use the power button as a Stand by/Hibernate/

Shutdown hot-key button when it is pressed for less than 4 seconds (pressing and

holding the power button for longer than this will shut the computer down). Use

Power Options in the Windows control panel to configure this feature.
