Would you like to change how long your computer waits before the screen dims or goes to sleep? If so, rest assured that faculty & staff with mobile computers have the ability to customize their power settings. This procedure outlines how to change the sleep and display power saving settings for your computer.
Note: These settings do not affect the automatic locking of your computer after 15 minutes.
Procedure
- Click the Start Button and in the search box type Power Options and hit Enter on your keyboard.
- On the Power Options window that appears, select the power plan you would like to use and click the Change plan settings link.
For those with HP EliteBook Tablet computers, we recommend leaving the HP Optimized plan selected since it already has been configured specifically for your tablet computer.
- Now you can change the time it takes before your computer performs any power saving features.
- Click the Save changes button when done.
