Utilities
TOSHIBA Hardware Setup
❖ CPU—Allows you to enable or disable CPU frequency
switching modes
Dynamically Switchable—This mode is the default setting for
your computer, and automatically changes the processing
frequency and decreases voltage depending on the power
source:
❖ AC Power—If your computer is connected to the AC
adaptor, the CPU frequency mode is set to high for faster
processing.
❖ Battery Power—If your computer is running on battery
power, the CPU frequency mode is set to low for slower
processing. Switching the CPU to low allows you to
conserve power and extend the operating time of your
battery.
Always High—Sets the CPU speed to high when using either
the battery or the AC adaptor
Always Low—Sets the CPU speed to low when using either
the battery or the AC adaptor
❖ Device Config—Shows the Device configuration options
❖ General—Allows you to view the current BIOS version or
change certain settings back to their default values
❖ Keyboard—Allows you to configure an external keyboard to
emulate the
Fn function key and access the wake-on keyboard
function
❖ LAN—Allows you to set networking functions
❖ USB—Allows you to enable or disable USB Legacy Emulation
By changing any of the options that appear in the dialog boxes and
clicking Apply, you can reconfigure that function. Any options that
you change will become default settings when you restart your
system.
