VAIO® Computer Quick Start

To lower the CPU speed using the power schemes:

1

Click Start on the Windows® taskbar, and click Control Panel.

2

Click Performance and Maintenance, and click Power Options. The
Power Options Properties window appears.

3

Select Portable/Laptop in the Power schemes box.

4

Click OK.

Why does the System Properties dialog box display a slower CPU speed than
the maximum?

This is normal. Because your computer’s CPU utilizes a type of CPU speed
controlling technology for power conservation purposes, System Properties may
display the CPU’s current speed instead of the maximum speed.

Why don’t my changes appear on the computer screen (LCD)?

You may need to refresh the computer screen. Press the Windows key

and

press D twice.

See PowerPanel Help for more information.
