The Power Setting is set to BatteryMgr-Normal Mode. BatteryMgr-Normal Mode

extends the battery use time when using battery power, and optimizes the Intel

Speedstep feature. Since it automically optimizes the processing speed of the

system to minimize power consumption, you may experience slower operations

when using battery power than when using AC power. To use BatteryMgr-Normal

mode in the Windows system, please install the Battery Manager program by

using the System Software Media.
