Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
The
ACPI
interface provides the computer with enhanced power saving tech-
niques and gives the operating system (OS) direct control over the power and
thermal states of devices and processors. For example, it enables the OS to set
devices into low-power states based on user settings and information from ap-
plications. ACPI is fully supported in
Windows XP .

Power management
functions will vary slightly
depending on your oper-
ating system. For more
information it is best to
refer to the user’s manual
of your operating system.
