    Hey peoples, is it possible to set a level where charging can start? For example, charging only starts when it's 30%. I only know how to do this on my Thinkpad through the Power Manager... but there's no such thing on my new M11x. Anyone able to help out?

    Thanks. :D

    If its not in the BIOS, then the computer doesn't support it. And it's not in the Alienware M11x's BIOS.
