APM

Short for Advanced Power Management. A feature from Intel and Microsoft for battery-powered computers, which powers-down or the display when the computer has been inactive for a certain length of time in order to conserve power. Monitors with this energy-saving capability are called "green monitors".

APM allowed the OS to do user-friendly things like having battery-remaining information displayed in the user interface, and allowed the OS to control some aspects of power management, such as requesting that the system enter a suspend state. Other  APM functions, such as screen blanking, continued to be handled solely by the firmware, and in all cases, the firmware performed the actual hardware-specific mechanisms by which the system entered suspend.

Using Test My Hardware to test APM
Test My Hardware collects and displays system configuration information for your computers. This includes information about system configurations, computer components, and operating system. When support technicians troubleshoot your system configuration, they require specific information about your computer. You can use Test My Hardware information to quickly find the information that these technicians need to resolve a system problem.
