More about SmartPower
The interface of the utility is extremely simple and user-friendly: the functionality is displayed in the menu. Among the functions we can distinguish such useful tricks as putting the PC to sleep or setting the device to turn on automatically. The timer allows you to execute a lot of commands with a set time limit, or to assign a countdown. Also, commands can be set to execute under certain conditions: say, if the CPU load holds a high or low value for a while.
It is also possible to protect against unexpected sleep or shutdowns: by prohibiting the execution of commands while working with an application or playing a game, the user can protect himself from interrupting the session at the most inopportune moment. Due to this SmartPower can be configured individually for each device and each user.
Thus, SmartPower is the most useful "lightweight" among start-up and shutdown timers. The simple interface and broad functionality combined with the lack of CPU overhead and annoying attempts to shut down the device no matter what, makes SmartPower a convenient and indispensable utility for every user.
