SpeedStep
Your notebook is equipped SpeedStep technology to better manage
power consumption. It changes the processor speed to find the best
balance between your computing performance and power consumption
needs. Higher speeds enjoy better performance, while slower speeds
conserve more power.
In Windows XP, the processor's performance level depends on the
Power Scheme you select (see Power Options Properties, section
6.1.3). You do not need to make any further adjustments to set the
performance level. Each preset power scheme has different time-out
settings for entering standby mode, hibernate mode, turning off the
display, and turning off the hard drive. For example, the
Portable/Laptop mode
automatically changes SpeedStep modes
depending on if you are running the computer on AC power or batteries
in order to prolong battery usage while still providing optimal
performance. You can also individually alter and save each of these
settings and schemes if desired.
