Software Troubleshooting

Question

A user reported that a laptop's screen turns off very quickly after sitting for a few moments and is also very dim when not plugged in to an outlet. Everything else seems to be functioning normally. Which of the following Windows settings should be configured?

Options

  • APower Plans
  • BHibernate
  • CSleep/Suspend
  • DScreensaver

Explanation

The described laptop display behavior, including quick screen timeout and dimness when on battery, are symptoms directly managed by Windows Power Plans.

Common mistakes.

  • B. Hibernate saves the system state to the hard drive and powers down the computer, but it does not control screen brightness or how quickly the screen turns off.
  • C. Sleep/Suspend puts the computer into a low-power state but typically refers to the overall system state, not specifically screen brightness or the screen-off timer, which are managed within Power Plans.
  • D. A screensaver displays an animation or image after a period of inactivity but does not control screen brightness or the time until the screen turns off.

Concept tested. Windows Power Plan configuration
