Abstract

According to one embodiment, an electric power supply system includes a processor, a power circuit and an embedded controller. The processor includes a first controller configured to modify an operating frequency of the processor and a second controller configured to modify an operating power of the processor. The power circuit and the embedded controller detect a presence or an absence of a battery in parallel. The power circuit instructs the first controller to modify the operating frequency when removal of the battery is detected. The embedded controller causes the second controller to modify the operating power via a Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) when the removal of the battery is detected, and causes the first controller to stop modify the operating power via the power circuit.
