These Green PC power saving categories are user configurable only
when the Power Management category is set to User Defined. They are
used to define the idle time that elapses before the system enters the
power saving mode.
When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, the
CPU clock will run at a slower speed (1/2 of full speed) while
all other devices still operate at full speed.
When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, the
CPU clock will run at a speed slower than the speed during
Doze mode (1/3 of full speed) while all other devices still oper-
ate at full speed.
When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, the
CPU and onboard peripherals will be shut off.
This is used to define the continuous HDD idle time that
elapses before the HDD enters the power saving mode (motor
off). When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity,
the hard disk drive will be powered down while all other de-
vices remain active.
