You can change the function of the power button, Standby system key, and 
power-saving timers by changing power settings on your notebook.

You can customize power settings from the Windows Control Panel by selecting 
power schemes, setting power alarms, adjusting advanced power settings, and 
activating Hibernate mode.

Power schemes (groups of power settings) let you change power saving options 
such as when the display or hard drive is automatically turned off. You can 
select one of the defined power schemes or create a custom power scheme. In 
Windows XP, power schemes also set the speed of an Intel

SpeedStep™-equipped processor. For more information, see “Changing 
SpeedStep settings” on page 156.

Alarms can alert you when the battery charge is low.

Advanced power settings let you assign different power saving modes to the power 
button and Standby system key. You can also select which power saving mode
