In XP you probably already know how to
manage the power settings for your system
on a laptop or desktop. Today we take you
through how to manage power settings and
create custom plans in Windows 7.
 There are new power management options
that you can set up in Windows 7 compared
to XP. You might want to change plans to
save battery power on your laptop, or reduce
energy consumption on a desktop at home or
the office. Here we will look at how to
manage and tweak the power plans, and how
to create custom plans as well.

Power Settings

To access power plan options
 To change any one of the predefined
power plans

To access power plan options


To access power
plan options, type
power settings into
the search bar in
the Start Menu
and hit Enter.


The Power Options screen opens and
from here you can select from three
predefined plans–Balanced, Power
saver, or High performance.


Click on Choose what the
power button does and you
can tweak several options
such as Requiring a
password on wakeup and
what the power button on the
computer does. If you set
When I press the power
button to Do nothing, you
won’t have a problem with
the PC shutting down when
you accidently hit the power
button.



To change any one of the
predefined power plans
click on Change plan
settings.




Then you can change the amount of
inactive time before the monitor is
turned off or the computer goes into
Sleep mode.

If you want to revert back to the
default settings, simply click on

Restore default settings for this plan.
To change any one of the
predefined power plans


To create a custom
plan, click on Create a
power plan from the Power
Options section.



In the Create a power plan
window a predetermined
plan that is closest to what
you want, and give the plan
a name.
 In

the next screen
select the sleep and
display settings you
want to use and click
the Create button.

After your plan is
created you’ll see it
under the preferred
plans list.


If you click on Change advanced power
settings, there are several options you can tweak.
These settings should only be used by advanced
users, as if you turn off the wrong thing, your
computer may not function correctly. Choosing
between the predetermined settings should be
adequate for most users.
