Windows XP Power Management

In addition to the V1250’s built-in power management BIOS
utility, Windows

®

XP also offers a similar power management

feature. To access this feature, click the Windows Start button >
Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > Power Options.
The Power Options Properties screen appears as shown below.

The Windows power management allows you to enter time-out
values for the display and hard disk. You can also have your
V1250 automatically enter a standby mode or shut itself down in
the event of low or critical battery power. For more information on
the power saving features, consult the Windows manual or on-line
help.

Note: The V1250’s BIOS supports Windows APM and ACPI modes. This
illustration shows the Windows ACPI dialogue box. Consult a Windows manual
on how to use Windows ACPI settings or for more information on how to use
the Windows power management functions.
