Specifications
Using Power Management
The Notebook system provides you with various modes to manage its
power consumption while maintaining system performance. Please refer
to Chapter 3: BIOS Utilities, System Configuration Utility, Power Menu
for more information.
Advanced Power Management (APM 1.2)
The Notebook provides built-in Advanced Power Management (APM 1.2)
support to reduce power consumption. APM function varies depending on
the operating system you are using. Some operating systems do not
support APM, such as Windows NT, and therefore, cannot take
advantage of the system’s capabilities in this area.
Advanced Configuration and Power
Interface (ACPI)
The ACPI interface gives the operating system (OS) direct control over
the power management and Plug and Play functions of a computer. The
operating system can perform the functions covered by the ACPI
specification, such as system power management, device power
management, and thermal management.
