Your hard disk drive is partitioned at the factory so that you
can use the Instant On or Save to
area of your disk is set aside for the saved data; this ensures
that there is enough space for all memory configurations.
Because this area is a non-DOS partition, it is invisible to your
DOS-based software. The amount of disk space available to you
for normal data storage is reduced.
To prepare your hard disk drive, you need to run the PHDISK
utility, located in the C:\ PM directory. Type the following
command at the DOS prompt and press
PHDISK/CREATE
If you want to reclaim some of the hard disk space, you can run
FDISK. Be sure to back up your entire hard drive before you
begin; FDISK will erase all data on the disk. You will have to
reinstall DOS from diskettes and then restore your hard drive
files. See your MS-DOS on-line help utility for more
information.

Using the APM Interface

In addition to your computer's power management features,
your system also supports the Intel/ Microsoft Advanced
Power Management (APM) interface, version 1.0 or higher.
This interface enhances your system's power-saving abilities by
providing increasing inactivity detection and lower CPU power
states without degrading performance.
APM is supported by MS-DOS versions 6.0 and higher, OS/ 2,
and Windows 3.1. APM is already enabled in the versions of
MS-DOS and Windows installed on your computer. MS-DOS
provides APM through the POWER.EXE utility. See your
MS-DOS on-line help utility for more information about
POWER.EXE.
