Other BIOS Setup Options
BIOS Setup offers other options, including the following:
!
Change Language Setting — Controls the BIOS setup language display. English,
Japanese, and French are the available options.
!
Refresh Battery — Launches the Refresh Battery utility. Once launched, the utility
fully discharges your battery to eliminate any residual memory effect. Once
refreshed, your battery is conditioned to recharge to its full capacity. To recharge
the battery, connect your NEC Versa to AC power. This process may take up to
four hours to complete.
!
Auto Configuration with Defaults — Loads default configuration settings.
!
Save Settings and Exit — Accepts changes made to current settings, saves to
CMOS, and exits BIOS Setup.
!
Exit Without Saving — Reverts to previously selected settings and exits Setup.
Managing System Power
In the Windows 98 environment, your NEC Versa manages its power resources using
the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) while the system is powered
on using AC or battery (DC) power. ACPI enables the operating system to manage the
power given to each attached device and to turn off a device when not in use.
Take advantage of the opportunity to manage power on your system to:
!
Minimize battery drain.
!
Preserve the life of your NEC Versa.
!
Save time. When you return from that urgent call or meeting, you don’t have to
reboot, just slide the Power button to the right to resume system operation.
Windows Power Management Properties
In Windows 98, most ACPI power management settings are controlled through
Windows Power Management Properties, not through the BIOS Setup Utility, unless
otherwise noted. To access Windows Power Management Properties, go to Start,
Settings, Control Panel, and double click Power Management.
The Power Management Properties features are broken down as follows:
!
