Associating Application Programs with Power Profiles

By default, some application programs installed in your Joybook are already asso- ciated with certain power profiles of QPower. For example, when you open the Window Media Player program, the DVD power profile will be applied automati- cally. You can add, remove or change the programs that are associated with the power profiles following the steps below.

If you want to disable the power profile switching function, right-click on the

QPower profile icon on Windows System Tray and uncheck Automatic Switch from the submenu that appears.

1. Right-click on the QPower profile icon on the Windows System Tray.
