Windows Introduction

Your system comes preloaded with the Microsoft

Tablet PC Edition operating system. The operating system provides a

means of running applications, navigating through your file structure,

and using your tablet PC.

Windows XP Tablet PC Edition incorporates the latest ACPI power

management. To fully utilize battery power in your NEC Versa

LitePad tablet PC, see the following section, "Windows Power

Management."

To learn about your tablet PC and how to use it, see the Microsoft

Windows XP Tablet PC Edition Tutorials. You can also go to the

Windows Start menu and select "Get Going with Tablet PC" for

additional tutorials about using the tablet PC and pen.

Your NEC Versa LitePad tablet PC manages its power resources using

the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) while the

system is powered on using AC or battery (DC) power. ACPI enables

the operating system to manage the power given to each attached

device and to turn off a device when not in use.

Take advantage of the opportunity to manage power on your system to:

Minimize battery drain.

Save time. When you return from that urgent call or meeting, you

don't have to reboot, just press the power button to resume system

operation.

ACPI power management settings are controlled through Windows

Power Options Properties.

To access Power Options, go to Start, select Control Panel,

Performance and Maintenance, and select Power Options.
