Power Menu Quick Access

Instead of making specific selections in the Power Options Properties box, you can
quickly and easily specify which pre-set power saving function you desire by clicking
on the Battery icon at the lower right-hand corner of the task bar. (If you do not see
a battery or AC-in icon, go to the Power Options Properties box and click on the
Advanced tab. Check off ``Always show icon on the task bar``.) Select Max Battery if
you want the system to enter Suspend Mode more often. Or, select Always On if your
notebook PC is plugged into an AC power source.
Note: The actual dialogue box may appear slightly different than the one shown above.
