Chapter 2 Operating on Battery Power 43
Advanced Power Management
This computer supports the APM standard designed to
further reduce power consumption. APM is a power-
management approach defined jointly by Microsoft and
Intel. An increasing number of software applications
support APM to take advantage of power saving features
and allow greater system availability without degrading
performance.
For more information about APM under Windows 95 or
Windows 98, refer to your Windows 95 or 98 user’s manual.
Note: If you enable Heuristic Power Management in Setup
without APM installed and enabled, the system time and
date do not display the correct settings after the computer
returns to normal operation from Standby or Hibernation
mode. To update the time and date, reboot the computer.
APM should be enabled to avoid this problem. Advanced
Power Management greatly prolongs battery life. Use APM
whenever possible.
