FlexiCharger (Advanced Menu > Advanced Chipset Control)
The sub-menu here allows you to enable/disable the FlexiCharger. The FlexiCharg-
er may be set to automatically start charging your battery when the battery reaches
a certain capacity level (e.g. you could start the battery charge level at 40%).
You can then set the level to stop charging (e.g. 100%), and of course this stop
charge level must be higher then the start charge level.
See the sidebar warning for information on running the FlexiCharger for an ex-
tended period as this is not recommended.
VT-d (Advanced Menu > Advanced Chipset Control)
Enable/disable Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) from
this menu. This extends Intel's Virtualization Technology (VT) by providing hard-
ware assists for a virtualization solution.

the battery meter's read-
ing accuracy will deteri-

To reset this, set the
FlexiCharger to "Dis-
abled", and then allow
the battery to completely
discharge (see “Battery
FAQ” on page 3 - 21)
before enabling the
function again.
