By default, the power scheme is configured to SAMSUNG mode. SAMSUNG
mode extends the battery life and optimizes the Intel Speedstep function. Since the
CPU power consumption is automatically optimized to conserve power when the
computer is operating on battery power, an application may be executed slower
than when it is operating on AC power.
To use the SAMSUNG mode after reinstalling Windows, install the PowerCFG
program using the system software CD.
