To shut down, only sleep is used, but sleep starts longer. If you use the STR technology of the motherboard power supply, you can turn off the power while in standby, and it takes only a few seconds to restore the computer to work. Most motherboards support STR technology. Take the Soyuz SY-I5PRLE motherboard as an example. After booting, go to the CMOS settings page and select “Power Management Setup”. After entering, find the "ACPISuspendType” item, set it to “S3(STR)” mode, save the CMOS settings. When the standby is used in the future, the power of the chassis will be automatically turned off. When the power button of the chassis is pressed, the system can be restored to the saved state during standby at high speed. When using STR technology for standby, the power supply of the motherboard cannot be cut off, otherwise the saved data will be lost. In addition, to wake up the system through the mouse and keyboard in the standby state, you can set it in CMOS, and set "PS/SKB/MSWakeupFromS3-S5" to "Allow".

For example, if the system uses hibernation for a long time, the data in the memory will not be cleared, which will make Windows XP run slower. At this time, you can use the memory tools such as “Freemem” to sort out.
   

   If you save a working file before hibernation, temporary files and data will be released, which greatly increases the speed of hibernation and recovery, and enhances data security during recovery. In addition, appropriately increase the system disk space capacity, open the DMA channel of the disk, and dial external devices such as USB before hibernation and standby, which can effectively improve the speed and stability of sleep and standby.
