Setting or Changing a Power Scheme
A power scheme controls the amount of power used by the notebook. You can set power schemes that conserve power while the notebook is running on battery power and power schemes that maximize performance while the notebook is running on external power.
Among the settings that you can use in a power scheme are settings that specify the time intervals before the system initiates standby or hibernation.
To select a preset power scheme or to create a custom power scheme:
»Select Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > Power Options > Power Schemes tab, and then follow the instructions on the screen.
✎The preset Max Battery power scheme maximizes battery conservation.
