3. Click the Power Schemes tab to display the basic power management options.
By default, the power scheme is configured to BatteryMgr-normal mode. Bat-
teryMgr-normal mode extends the battery life and optimizes the Intel Speed-
step function. Since the CPU power consumption is automatically optimized to
conserve power when the computer is operating on battery power, an applica-
tion may be executed slower than when it is operating on AC power.To use
BatteryMgr-normal mode after reinstalling Windows, install the Battery Man-
ager program using the system software Media.
4. Select the time that you wish each of the following actions to occur in Battery and
AC power mode.
•
Turn off monitor
•
Turn off hard disks
•
System standby
•
System hibernates
Turning off the monitor and HDDs will save a substantial amount of battery power,
therefore when in battery only mode select the shortest time practical.
You can also reserve Turning Computer Off, Hibernation state, Hold Mode,
etc. by selecting System > Computer Scheduling in the EasyBox program.
