To increase battery operating time, set the Suspend Time-out option to a lower number of minutes.

NOTE: Set the Suspend Time-out option to Disabled if using it causes compatibility problems with
your software.

A change to the Suspend Time-out option takes effect immediately (rebooting is not required).

If you are not in the System Setup program, you can activate suspend mode at any time by pressing
<Fn><Esc>. The computer resumes normal operation automatically when you press the power button.

System Memory

System Memory displays the total amount of synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM)
installed in your computer. No user-selectable settings are available for this option. The amount of memory
displayed changes if you install or remove a memory module.

System Primary

System Primary displays the current status of the primary hard-disk drive password and allows you to
assign or change this password.

Settings for this option are:

Disabled (the default) — Indicates that no primary hard-disk drive password is assigned

Enabled — Indicates that a primary hard-disk drive password is currently assigned

NOTICE: The password features provide a high level of security for the data in your computer.
However, they are not foolproof. If your data requires more security, you should obtain and use
additional forms of protection, such as data encryption programs or PC Cards with encryption
features.

Time

Time resets the time on the computer's internal clock. Time is kept in a 24-hour format
(hours:minutes:seconds).

NOTE: If a network server controls the time reflected by the Time option, changing this option has no
effect.

A change to the Time option takes effect immediately (rebooting is not required). However, you must reboot
