Battery Power,” in the System Users Guide.
Smart CPU Mode
allows the computer to slow down the microprocessor automati-
cally if it is not being used. Settings for this option are:
On
— Allows the computer to slow down the microprocessor when it is inactive
Off
(the default) — Keeps the microprocessor running at its normal operating
speed regardless of microprocessor inactivity
To increase battery operating time, set the
Smart CPU Mode
option to
On
.
When the
Smart CPU Mode
option is enabled and the microprocessor is inactive, the
computer slows the microprocessor to save power.
NOTES: Some communications software may not work properly when
Smart CPU
Mode
is enabled. Dell recommends that you set
Smart CPU Mode
to
Off
if you are
using communications software.
Interactive application programs should function well when
Smart CPU Mode
is
enabled. (Examples of interactive programs include spreadsheet, text editor, graphics
design, entertainment, educational, and utility programs.) However, you may experi-
ence performance degradation when recalculating a large spreadsheet or during an
extensive screen redraw in a graphical program. Benchmark utilities may not perform
as intended when doing microprocessor speed tests. If the software you use suffers
significant performance degradation, set
Smart CPU Mode
to
Off
.

Standby mode conserves battery power by stopping some computer activity, but
leaves the computer ready to resume operations immediately. Use standby mode
when you leave the computer unattended for less than a few minutes. Press
<Fn><Esc> to enter standby mode when you are in Windows 98. Resume normal
computer activity by moving the cursor or pressing any key on the built-in keyboard
(the computer takes less than a second to return to normal operation).
