AC Power—If your computer is connected to the AC adapter,
the CPU frequency mode is set to high for faster processing.
Battery Power—If your computer is running on battery
power, the CPU frequency mode is set to low, for slower
processing. Switching the CPU to low allows you to conserve
power and extend the operating time of your battery.
Always High
—Set the CPU speed to high when using either the
battery or the AC adapter.
Always Low
—Sets the CPU speed to low when using either the
battery or the AC adapter.
By changing any of the options that appear in the dialog boxes and
