For a change to Serial Port to take effect, you must reboot your computer.
Service Tag
Service Tag displays the computer's alphanumeric service code, which was programmed into NVRAM by Dell during the manufacturing process.
Be prepared to supply this identification during technical assistance or service calls. The service tag is also accessed by certain Dell support
software, including diagnostics. No user-selectable settings are available for this option.
Smart CPU Mode
Smart CPU Mode allows the computer to slow down the microprocessor automatically if it is not being actively used.
Settings for this option are:
l Enabled (the default) — Allows the computer to slow down the microprocessor when it is inactive
l Disabled— Keeps the microprocessor running at its normal operating speed regardless of microprocessor inactivity
When Smart CPU Mode is set to Enabled and the microprocessor is inactive, the computer slows the microprocessor to save power.
A change to Smart CPU Mode takes effect immediately (rebooting is not required).
Suspend Time-out
Suspend Time-out lets you determine how long your computer remains idle before activating suspend mode to conserve battery power.
Suspend Time-out settings for both AC and Battery options are:
To increase battery operating time, set Suspend Time-out to a lower number of minutes.
A change to Suspend Time-out 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.
NOTE: Convert the service tag number into an express service code when prompted to do so the first time you turn on the computer (or
use the program in the Dell Accessories folder). Keep the code handy in case you call Dell for technical assistance. The code helps
Dell's automated support telephone system direct your call more efficiently.
NOTES: Some communications software may not work properly when Smart CPU Mode is enabled. Dell recommends that you set
Smart CPU Mode to Disabled if you are using communications software.
Interactive application programs should function well when Smart CPU Mode is set to Enabled. (Examples of interactive programs
include spreadsheet, text editor, graphics design, entertainment, educational, and utility programs.) If your computer runs slowly while
