Enhanced Intel Speedstep Technology Whether the processor uses Enhanced Intel SpeedStep
	Technology, which allows the system to dynamically adjust
	processor voltage and core frequency. This technology can result
	in decreased average power consumption and decreased average
	heat production. This can be one of the following:
	• Disabled—The processor never dynamically adjusts its
		voltage or frequency.
	• Enabled—The processor utilizes Enhanced Intel
		SpeedStep Technology and enables all supported processor
		sleep states to further conserve power.
	We recommend that you contact your operating system vendor
	to make sure the operating system supports this feature.
