Controlling Power Management
Under Windows 2000, the BIOS Setup does not manage power, as it did under previous Windows
operating systems. Windows 2000 itself manages the power.
This means that–except for “Auto Suspend on
Undock” and “Auto Turn-on on Dock”– the Power settings in BIOS Setup have no effect, even though they
are still present.
