whitepaper Power Availability Requests2009-06-23 Microsoft
  By default, Windows-based platforms enable device and system power management technologies to help improve energy efficiency and reduce power consumption. Two of the most effective power management features are display power management and automatic sleep. However, in some scenarios, applications or drivers must temporarily disable these power management technologies to perform tasks as the user expects. Applications can temporarily prevent display power management and automatic sleep by making power availability requests. This paper describes when to use availability requests, the user-mode and kernel-mode functions that support such requests, and new options in the PowerCfg tool to manage availability requests on Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.

whitepaper UEFI Support and Requirements for Windows Operating Systems2009-04-24 Microsoft
  This paper provides information about Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) support in Windows operating systems. Firmware and system designers can use the guidelines and requirements in this paper to ensure proper functionality of Windows operating systems and improve end-user experiences.

whitepaper Windows ACPI Emulated Devices Table2009-04-06 Microsoft
  Modern PC platforms often use devices that have known errata. In this case, the Windows family of operating systems may include mechanisms to work around these known errata whenever possible. Two example devices are the Real-Time Clock (RTC) and the ACPI Power Management (PM) timer, as implemented in some chipsets. When an operating system runs as a guest in a virtualized environment, a device may be emulated by an underlying Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) or hypervisor. Unlike the actual device, the emulated device might not contain the errata. In this situation, special-case handling by the operating system software is unnecessary. Applying a needless work around to an emulated device can introduce unnecessary software overhead or lead to incorrect behavior when the operating system accesses device.
