Your computer has Advanced Power Management (APM) and Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) features that allow you to set different levels of energy conservation for specific components of your computer. You can view and change APM and ACPI settings using the Configuration/Setup Utility program or the Windows 95 control panel.

In addition, the system board is on a sliding mechanism so that you can slide the system board in and out of the computer frame.
