Depending on your patterns of computer use, you can set different levels of power management. These different

System activity examples include keyboard or mouse movement, CD playback (while under program control that
monitors Sleep), and modem use.
You can select different conditions or power schemes through Power Management.The optional settings are Home/
Office Desk, Portable/ Laptop, and Always On. From the default settings, you can change the following
settings:
the System goes to Sleep (Standby) mode
the screen times out and goes blank
the hard drive spins down
Each of these system components goes to sleep after the selected or default periods of inactivity.
(The setting for hard drive must be less than, or equal to, the setting for System.)
IMPORTANT:
If you're on a network, it's recommended that you set System Standby to Never.
There are five categories of power management settings under the Control Panel. The default setting
for each feature is listed below in the tables.
