Abstract

A power management method for a computer system is provided, which is not affected by a problem with the power and needs a shorter time for the computer system to resume from the suspended state. In the method, when the computer system resumes from the suspended state, if a power controller for controlling the power has not been initialized, it is determined that no interruption of the AC power occurred, and the computer system resumes the previous state based on the data stored in the main memory, while if the power controller has been initialized, it is determined that an interruption of the AC power occurred, and the data stored on the hard disk is read out and the computer system resumes the previous state based on the readout data.
