111227 - I explained that there is not a battery icon on the task bar,
111228 - and even if there was, we want to know where the program is located in

120406 - Tamra said a lot of systems have trouble with standby mode.
120407 -
120408 - This call actuall occurred on 000605.
120409 -
120410 - As a result, we decided to set standby to off.
120411 -
120412 - We tried to select hibernation mode which is more reliable.
120413 -
120414 - However we could not get hibernation mode to become active so it
120415 - could be set.
120416 - ..
120417 - We tried setting monitor and disk status to Never, thinking this
120418 - might activitate hibernation mode. It did not work.
120419 -
120420 - Therefore, we need instructions on using hibernation mode.
120421 -
120422 - Tamra will submit a claim asking Toshiba to disclose instructions on
120423 - adjusting settings for power use, including how to apply hibernation
120424 - mode.
