Sleep is a power-saving state that allows a computer to quickly resume full-power operation
(typically within several seconds) when you want to start working again. Putting your computer
into the sleep state is like pausing a DVD player—the computer immediately stops what it’s
doing and is ready to start again when you want to resume working.
Hibernation is a power-saving state designed primarily for laptops. While sleep puts your work
and settings in memory and draws a small amount of power, hibernation puts your open
documents and programs on your hard disk, and then turns off your computer. Of all the
power-saving states in Windows, hibernation uses the least amount of power. On a laptop, use
hibernation when you know that you won't use your laptop for an extended period and won't
have an opportunity to charge the battery during that time.
