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 standby mode at any time by pressing <Fn><Esc>. The computer resumes normal
operation automatically when you press a key on the built-in keyboard.
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
l
Enabled — Indicates that a primary hard-disk drive password is currently assigned
l
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 to make the change apparent to the
operating system.
Universal Connect
The Universal Connect option functions with the Dell Inspiron 3700 APR if the computer uses Windows 98.
Set this option to Enabled (the default) if you often use more than one Inspiron 3700 APR and want to minimize the initialization time when you
connect the replicator to the computer. When this option is set to Disabled, the Inspiron 3700 APR is reinitialized each time it is connected to the
computer.
Video Memory
Video Memory displays the amount of video memory installed on the system board. No user-selectable settings are available for this option.
