Which Windows Power Option should a technician configure to minimize power consumption when a laptop is idle, yet allow the user to resume work almost instantly without a full boot sequence?
Enable Hibernate
Choose what closing the lid does
Sleep / suspend
Turn on Fast Startup
Sleep (sometimes called Suspend) places the system in a low-power S3 state. The screen, CPU, and most components power down, while the session remains in RAM. Because RAM stays energized, the system can wake in a few seconds without performing POST or loading the OS kernel, meeting the requirement for immediate resumption. Hibernate writes RAM to disk and powers off completely-consuming less power but taking longer to restore. Fast Startup accelerates cold boots but still performs a shutdown, and changing the lid-close action does not itself determine the low-power state.
