Abstract
An apparatus for heat suppression in an initial setting mode includes, in one embodiment, an execution unit of an information processing device that executes an operation related to an initial setting mode of the information processing device, a power supply that supplies power to one or more heat generating components of the execution unit, and a controller that controls at least the power supplied by the power supply to make an amount of heat generation of the execution unit in the initial setting mode lower than the amount of heat generation of the execution unit in an operating mode after termination of the initial setting mode until fulfillment of a predetermined condition. A method and a computer program product also perform functions of the apparatus.
