Chapter 3: Power Management
Overview
To conserve power, your computer’s power management conserves power by con-
trolling individual components of the computer (the monitor and hard disk drive) or
the whole system. This chapter covers:
• Turning on the Computer
• Power Plans
• System Power Options
• Configuring the Power Button
The computer uses enhanced power saving techniques to give the operating system
(OS) direct control over the power and thermal states of devices and processors. For
example, this enables the OS to set devices into low-power states based on user set-
tings and information from applications.
Using some form of power management greatly increases the life span of the
LCD.
