Windows Vista:
Under Power off button you can set what action is to be carried out when you click on the Power off
button. By default, the computer is put into Power save mode.
If you would prefer to shut down your computer quickly (or you are missing this function entirely in
Windows Vista), you are advised to select Shut down computer. This saves you from having to open
the submenu and selecting Shut down there. The third option is to put your PC into hibernate mode.
For the Hibernate and Power save modes, the current status, including all opened documents and

the taskbar alerts you to the fact that other software is trying to communicate with you. If this flashing
