You can put it to sleep/energy saving mode. If you Google how to you can also put it to hybernate. I don't think the original commenter does it, but I recommend it.

Or I could just not do any of that and turn it off. It doesn't hurt anything to turn your PC off. I promise. Especially since standby mode comes with those stupid LEDs I hate, and hibernate takes longer to boot back up then a cold boot.
