Described is a method and system for power management of mobile computer displays, in which areas of the screen are selectively controlled to consume less power than other areas. For example, a foreground window having focus may receive normal brightness, while background areas are dimmed. To this end, the pixels of selected areas are controlled to vary color depth, resolution, refresh rate, brightness and / or the on / off state for any part of the display. Power settings for parts of the display not corresponding to a focused window can be gradually reduced over time. Power policy may determine which areas are given reduced power, and external mechanisms provide information useful in the determination, such as when the user last interacted with a window, where the mouse is hovering, explicit user instructions as to how to power manage a window, and sensors that detect where the user is likely to want more power.

A method and system for providing correct operational parameters for up-level design components utilized within a computer system after a low level basic input / output system (BIOS) code has been qualified. A patch file is created or obtained for a component that is added to a computer system after a BIOS code has been qualified for the computer system. The patch file includes the operating parameters (or profiles) of the component. The flash module is designed with a memory block reserved for holding data from the patch file, which can be updated independently of the rest of the flash module. The Advance Configuration Program Interface (ACPI) or advanced power management (APM) code of the computer system is modified to dynamically read the parameters from this memory block and update their respective functions accordingly. During set up of the computer system, the patch file is flashed into the reserved block of the flash module. The data is merged by the FLASH utility into the existing BIOS so that the computer system has the correct parameters for the particular component.
