![]() Kudos to you for reviewing the power settings on your computer. I see you are looking for the difference between sleep and hibernate also you want the computer to wake up when you press any key on your keyboard. Thanks in advance for any help you can give this Windows laptop newbie! So, again, what visual clue is there that the laptop is in hibernate versus turned off completely? But if the laptop was actually off, pressing the power button will turn it on, which is NOT what I want to do if I have to quickly put it in a bag and get to a meeting!! If the screen turns on quickly and I am not presented with the log-in screen, it was in hibernate. But it seems the only way I can tell if it's in hibernate mode is to (1) open the lid, and (2) press the power button. I would hate to pack it in a backpack in hibernate mode. ![]() QUESTION 2: For folks who allow hibernate mode (or, as in my case, seem to not be able to avoid it in spite of turning it off in settings) - how do you tell when the lid is closed whether your computer is in hibernate or turned off? QUESTION 1: How can I tell for sure if the laptop is just in sleep mode but for some reason the power button stops blinking and just has no light at all, or if the laptop is in hibernate mode? (3) I can't tell if the laptop is off or in hibernate!! for the first few minutes, when it is still in sleep mode, the power button blinks and opening the lid turns on the screen.) (Again, I am *presuming* this is "hibernate mode" because the power light goes out and opening the lid does not wake it up. (2) It's bothering me that even though I don't allow hibernate anywhere that I can find in Settings, the computer puts itself into hibernate mode anyhow. I have seen search result hits that talk about enabling waking up the computer with the keyboard - so I will read those and am not looking for an answer to this here. ![]() (1) Once the laptop has moved itself from sleep to hibernate mode, opening the lid or touching a key does not wake it up, I have to press the power button. I don't mind the hibernate mode so much except for three things: However, whether on power or battery, if the computer is asleep with the lid closed, after a while the power light goes completely off, which seems to indicate the laptop has actually moved to Hibernate mode. ![]() In my power management control panels (including advanced) I have made sure that Hibernate is just turned off. It seems from the various guides I've read that if the computer is sleeping the power button will blink. I am new to Windows and bought a wonderful new HP Spectre x360 15" laptop.
