3-20 Using the BIOS Setup Utility
Windows 2000 and Intel SpeedStep Technology
Use the Intel SpeedStep technology (available in systems with Intel Pentium III
processors) to optimize processing speed and conserve battery life.
Enable Intel SpeedStep technology through the Power menu (Intel SpeedStep2) in the
BIOS Setup utility. The available settings are Disabled and Enabled. Use Disabled to
turn off Intel SpeedStep2 technology.
If Intel SpeedStep2 technology is enabled in your system, an icon appears on your
taskbar allowing you to adjust processing properties. However, the default settings are
recommended for optimal performance and battery conservation.
For information about accessing the BIOS Setup utility and the Intel SpeedStep2
technology parameter, see “Entering BIOS Setup” and “Power Menu” earlier in this
chapter.
