Note
HP Smart AC adapter warning message: informs you that as power demands
increase, the notebook may not perform at full capacity, which may result in
longer battery-charging time. In cases of extreme power demands, the system
may also throttle back the processor, or with systems that have a discrete video
sub-system, a video balance mode may occur to further balance the power needs
of the system.
System processor functions always have priority over battery charging, so
charging delays will occur first.
