This item allows you to specify the speed at which the unit's clock runs in power saving states. The possible
speeds, or duty cycles, are expressed as a percentage of the normal CPU clock speed:
% = (CPU clock speed in power-conserving state) * 100 / (normal CPU clock speed)
This item allows you to monitor or ignore keyboard and mouse use when deciding to enter/leave suspend
states.
