Can someone tell me the difference between Hibernate and Standby? As far as I can see the process is the same, only with Standby it takes much shorter to powerdown the computer. Yes it powers down, I thought it was still 'a little' activated like in Windows 98 SE (the fans were still running), but it really powers down and it is as silent as a dead bird.
Can someone tell me why Standby is much quicker than Hibernate, or have I missed something?
ps. While in Standby mode when I move the mouse or press any keys on the keyboard, nothing happens (both PS/2)
