Advanced Power Management (APM 1.1, 1.2) device driver provides support for APM BIOS interface.
DEVICE=x:\OS2\BOOT\APM.SYS <parameter>
Parameter:
- /B - favorizes the direct connection to the APM-BIOS support
- /D - favorizes the device-driver connection of the APM support
- /V - x.y forces the compatibility to APM Version x.y (e.g. 1.0)
Together with the APMDAEMN.EXE these settings can also be done by using the Power-Symbol from System Setup Folder.
- TIP
- Battery Setup
- Change WarpCenter properties to 'Show only when Mouse is over Center's position'
- Enable in 'Power Properties' from System folder 'Performance' page 'Automatically change performance when the power source changes'. (Only tested with Warp 4 fixpak 13).
- TIP
- When OS/2 fails to install in ACPI-only systems REM this driver (has to be done on the Installation disks too) or give APM_NH.SYS a try, it is reported to work on Intel based motherboards too.
