5671.0. "Power Management under NT ?" by ANNECY::AEO452::KENNEALY_R () Mon Feb 10 1997 23:53

Hello,

Can anybody tell me if any power management software is available in/for 
Windows NT 4.x ?

If so, is it any good ?

Thanks in advance.

	According to trade rags, power managment is coming in NT 5.0.
	Anything else is special software done by vendors, such as
	Digital for the HiNote laptops. It's usually not readily 
	available.

	I suggest you wait for the NT 5.0 beta, if it fact the trade
	rags are true.

    Re .0, i believe the only power management software available for
    Windows NT 4.0 has been on Digital HiNote Ultra line of laptops.  That
    capability has been developed by DECwest Engineering and the only one
    endorsed by Microsoft for NT 4.0.  I have it on my Ultra II NT Server
    4.0 and i like it alot.  It's unintrusive and you'd feel the pain
    without it after having it on the system.
    
    There are new work in NT 5.0 addressing this area.
