2. Click Administrative Tools.
3. Double-click Task Scheduler. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type
the password or provide confirmation.

scheduled tasks are displayed.
5. Click a scheduled task, and then click the Conditions tab.
6. Under Power, select the check box for Wake the computer to run this task.
Enabling the battery alarm on the Windows 7 operating system
For the Windows 7 operating system, you can program your computer so that when the battery power falls
below a certain level, three events occur: the alarm goes off, a message is displayed, and the LCD is
turned off.
To enable the battery alarm, do the following:
1. Start the Power Manager program.
2. Click the Global Power Settings tab.
3. For Low battery alarm or Critically low battery alarm, set the percentage of the power level and set
the action.
Note: If your computer enters sleep or hibernation mode when the battery is low, but the alarm message
has not yet been displayed, the message will be displayed when the computer resumes. To resume normal
operation, click OK.
