To set time-outs
The BIOS Setup utility includes settings for automatic time-outs at specified periods
of inactivity. There are four different time-outs for different levels of power and
conservation.
1. From the Start menu, shut down then restart the OmniBook.
2. When you see the HP logo, press F2 to enter the BIOS Setup utility. Active keys
are described along the bottom of the screen. (The touch pad does not work in
Setup.) Help information for the highlighted item appears in the right-hand
sidebar in the display.
3. Select the Power menu.
4. Select Power Management Mode. (Press the spacebar, F5, or F6 to pick an
option other than Disabled.)
Maximum Power Savings
: The time-out settings are defined for best power
savings (relatively short time-outs).
Maximum Performance
: The time-out settings are set for fast performance with
some power conservation (relatively long time-outs).
Customized
: You determine each setting for Smart CPU Mode, Standby
Time-out, Suspend Time-out, Hibernate Time-out, and Hard Disk Time-out. For
definitions of these power modes, see page 2-3.
5. Optional. Choose a setting for Time-Out On AC. If you want the time-outs to
occur even when the OmniBook is connected to ac power, choose Enabled. To
prevent time-outs while the OmniBook is plugged in, choose Disabled (default
setting).
6. Press F10 to save and exit the BIOS Setup utility.
