Power Options

The Power menu lets you tell your system to enter a low-power Standby

mode when it is idle for a specified time. Standby minimizes your

system’s energy consumption while allowing you to resume work within

moments.

Power Savings

Lets you choose the how to conserve power used by your CPU, your fixed

disk drives, and your monitor. Settings: Customize (default), Maximum,

Medium, Minimum, and Disabled. This allows you to opt for one of three

preset configurations, customize the Standby settings yourself, or disable

power savings altogether. The list below describes what each setting

controls:

• Standby Timeout controls how long (1 minute to 4 hours, or

Disabled) your system must be idle before it enters Standby mode.

• Standby CPU Speed dictates the level of CPU activity (Max,

High, Medium, Low) during Standby.

• Fixed Disk Timeout controls how long (1-16 minutes, or Disabled)

an idle system waits before stopping the hard disk motor.

• CRT can be set to OFF in Standby or always ON.
