Battery Conservation Settings Tab
In addition to the battery conservation settings, this tab also has an
option to turn off or on the low-battery warning beeps and, in
Windows NT, an option to disable or enable CD-ROM auto insert
notification.
Conservation Level and Settings:
View or change the level of
battery conservation and the Custom conservation settings:
1
High—provides maximum battery conservation and the most
battery life from a single charge.
2
Medium—factory-default setting; provides a balance between
system performance and battery life.
3
None (Drain)—turns off battery conservation, so that the
system runs at full power.
4 Custom—allows you to specify timeout settings for Suspend,
system idle, hard disk idle, screen save, processor speed, and
brightness.
NOTE:
To view or change conservation levels quickly, press the
battery conservation hotkey
Fn+F7.
Press the left or right arrow
keys to select a different level in the popup window.
