Use Intel(R) Display Power Saving Technology (Power Schemes Settings)
Intel(R) Display Power Saving Technology makes it possible to reduce power
consumption when operating with the battery by lowering the display luminance while
maintaining a certain apparent LCD brightness by adjusting the image contrast, color and
other settings. To reduce the power consumption, set [Power Schemes Settings] to the
[Maximum Battery] (factory setting) side.
We recommend removing the check mark from [Intel(R) Display Power Saving
Technology] when fine adjustment of the image or color is necessary, or when performing
advanced image editing using image editing application software. To return the setting to
[Maximum Battery], first add a check mark for [Intel(R) Display Power Saving Technology]
and then reset [Power Schemes Settings] to the [Maximum Battery] side.
To change the setting:
A
Select [start] - [Control Panel], and from the [See Also] area select [Other
Control Panel Options] as shown at left.
B
Select [Intel(R) GMA Driver for Mobile] - [Devices].
C
Select [Power Schemes Settings].
D
Change the setting, and then select [OK].
CAUTION
When installed in a network environment (except when the Wake up from LAN
function is in use).
Do not use the standby or hibernation mode.
After resuming operation from the standby or hibernation mode, the network
connection may be severed or the computer will not work properly.
