What can I do to conserve battery power?

There are several ways to conserve battery power, and this is an important activity, particularly if you frequently use your system in situations when you can’t operate your system on AC power.

Try using your system with a lower screen illumination to conserve battery.

Run your system on battery power with Intel SpeedStep2 technology enabled. This allows the processor to run at a lower speed during non-intensive processor operations, and consequently conserves your battery.

There are also activities that draw larger amounts of battery power. If possible, operate your system on AC power in these circumstances to conserve your battery. For example, NEC Computers recommends running the system on AC power while using external devices such as a printer or a USB drive, when connected to a network, or while playing DVD movies.
