July 15, 200322 yr How much power is being used when the Computer is on? Is it alot? And is it alright if I leave it on STANDBY for a night or whatever...I think i heard it uses a couple watts when on Standby..
July 15, 200322 yr Author It doesn't use much any if you have an energy star computer. What the hell is that?
July 15, 200322 yr most of them are energy star, like when you choose your screen saver it gives you those power options underneath to shut off your monitor and hard drive after a certain length of idle time. stand by and hibernate probably use minimal amounts of power if you wanna still keep it on.

Oh, ok..yeah..I have it set to turn off my monitor after 5 minutes when not in use...especially when I'm listening to my radio show on the computer..
