Abstract
A personal computer, wherein a setup processing is performed to select a display mode, either a normal-display mode or a reverse-display mode, and also to select one of the external devices such as a printer and an external floppy disk drive. Also, a display auto-off mode and a display auto-off period are set during the setup processing. A period is measured during which no data is input from a keyboard. When the measured time value exceeds the display auto-off period, the supplement of power to the back light is stopped automatically.
