in xp power mangement what does it mean by "turn off hard disks" does that mean it switches the computer off

What it does is it puts your hard disk drive in like a stand by mode. When you move the mouse you'll be back at what you where doing.

so it stops the computer writing to it?

I don't think so you'll have to try it.

k thanks will try it
