Hibernate and Sleep Modes
If your computer is allowed to hibernate or sleep during operation of the MSAS Software you may experience data loss or program instability. To prevent this from happening BioMeridian recommends you disable Hibernate mode and turn off system sleep modes on your computer. To do this follow the instructions below.
To turn disable Hibernate mode:
- Right-click on the desktop in any "empty" space, and then left click Properties.
- Click the Screen Saver tab.
- Click the Power button in the bottom left hand corner.
- Click the Hibernate tab
- Make sure there is no check mark in the box that says "Enable hibernation" as is shown in this illustration:
- If there is a check in the box remove it and click Apply.
- Click on the Power Schemes tab
- Turn all fields to never as shown below (Turn off monitor is optional - you may choose to turn off the monitor after a period of time to conserve energy - this will not cause any conflicts with the BioMeridian software)
- Once all changes have been made click OK.
