Automatic Battery Pack Charging Function
You can automatically charge the battery pack by using the AC Adapter.
The charge time is almost two hours
when the computer power is turned off.
Battery Status
Windows XP has an applet in the Control Panel that will display an
icon in the Windows taskbar indicating when the computer is running
on battery power or is attached to the AC adapter.
This applet also displays a meter that indicates how much charge
is remaining in the battery.
Battery Low Warning
When the battery is in low status, its LED indicator will blink
continuously and you will hear beeping sound.
CMOS Battery
There is a small built-in battery pack that supplies power to the system
in order to maintain certain system information while the power is off.
If the computer is left without a power source for long period of time,
this battery will be exhausted and system information will be lost.
