Abstract
Systems and methods for reducing the power consumption of an Information Handling System (IHS). In some embodiments, an IHS may be configured to: in response to a request to operate in static display mode: (a) render static content on a display, (b) allow the processor to enter standby by notifying an OS that the display is off while keeping the display on, and (c) maintain the display refreshed with the static content; while in static mode and in response to a command that requires updating the static content, wake up the processor and generate updated static content using the processor; and after generating the updated static content: render the updated static content on the display while the processor is awake, allow the processor to re-enter standby by notifying the OS that the display is off while keeping the display on, and maintain the display refreshed with the updated static content.
