Video Timeout
The Video Timeout is one of the power man-
agement parameters which saves power by
turning off the display if there is no keyboard
or pointer activity for the user selected timeout
period. Any keyboard or pointer activity will
cause the display to restart automatically. This
feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume
button. This parameter is enabled and disabled
in the BIOS setup utility.
(See page 44
.
)
Hard Disk Timeout
The Hard Disk Timeout is one of the power
management parameters which saves power
by turning off the hard drive if there is no hard
drive access for the timeout period which has
been set in the BIOS setup utility.
(See page 44.)
Any attempt to access the hard drive will cause
the hard drive to restart automatically. This
feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume
button. This parameter is enabled and disabled
in the BIOS setup utility.
Windows Power Management
Control Panels
The Power Management icon in the Windows
98 SE Control Panel allows you to configure
some of the power management settings that are
normally controlled by the BIOS. For instance,
you can set timeout values in the Power
Management Control Panel for turning off
the display and for turning off hard disks.
You can specify these timeout values based on
whether you are running on batteries or AC.
ACPI and Windows 98 Second Edition
Short for Advanced Configuration & Power
Interface, a power management specification
developed by Intel, Microsoft, and Toshiba.
ACPI, which is part of the Windows 98 SE
operating system, enables the operating system
to control the amount of power given to each
device attached to the computer. With ACPI,
the operating system can turn off peripheral
devices, such as CD-ROM players, when they
are not in use.
Your Windows 98 SE LifeBook B Series note-
book is configured in APM (Advanced Power
Management) mode. Due to ongoing industry
development of ACPI technology, it is not
recommended that you re-configure your
notebook for ACPI mode.
PRE-INSTALLED SOFTWARE
Your LifeBook B Series comes with Microsoft
Windows 98 SE and pre-installed software
applications for playing audio and reading
various other formats. In addition there is file
transfer software, virus protection software,
and Power Management software.
All of the pre-installed software can be accessed
from the Program folder of the Windows Start
menu. If you aren’t sure what software is pre-
installed check the Program folder. If you need
assistance with an individual application use
