The function of the fn+f5 hotkey can be changed. For example,
you can set the
fn+f5 hotkey to initiate hibernation instead of
standby. In all Windows operating system windows, references to
the sleep button apply to the
fn+f5 hotkey.
For information about changing the function of the
fn+f5 hotkey,
refer to “Setting Other Power Preferences” in Chapter 2, “Power.”
For more information about using standby and hibernation, refer
to Chapter 2, “Power.”
Initiate QuickLock (fn+f6)
In Windows the fn+f6 hotkey initiates the QuickLock security
feature.
QuickLock protects your work by displaying the operating
system Log On window. While the Log On window is displayed,
the notebook cannot be accessed until a Windows user password
or a Windows administrator password is entered.
Before you can use QuickLock, you must set a Windows user
password or a Windows administrator password. For instructions,
refer to the Help and Support Center. To access the Help and
Support Center, press the
fn+f1 hotkey or select Start > Help
and Support.
To use QuickLock, press
fn+f6 to display the Log On window and
lock the notebook. Then follow the instructions on the screen to
enter your Windows user password or your Windows
administrator password and access the notebook.
For information about combining Windows passwords with HP
passwords, refer to “Passwords” in Chapter 12, “Security.”
