ABSTRACT:
A system and method to resume execution of a client system from a saved system state without executing a boot-up process. A data storage unit and the client system having volatile system memory are coupled to a network. Data stored on the data storage unit is received via the network and loaded into the volatile system memory of the client system. The data contains information for the client system to resume execution from the saved system state without executing a boot-up process after a power-off state. The client system is then capable of resuming operation from the saved system state.
