How to shut off window's graphics to save battery life while my program is running?
<p>I am trying to make a program that i could run on my laptop for long trips to save battery life. What I would like to happen is that is would shut down everything windows does that is not necessary to running programs (IE: shutting ALL the windows graphics.)   , and my program would just be a form with several icons in it to the programs I need the most.  I'm not sure how would go about creating this, or if it would truly help for that matter.  </p>

<p>Thanks</p>
