BIOS Setup
Power Management Setup
ACPI Function
This item is to activate the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Man-
agement Interface) Function. If your operating system is ACPI-aware, such
as Windows 98SE/2000/ME, select [Enabled].
ACPI Suspend Type
This item specifies the power saving modes for ACPI function. If your oper-
ating system supports ACPI, such as Windows 98SE, Windows ME and
Windows 2000, you can choose to enter the Standby mode in S1 (POS) or
S3 (STR) fashion through the setting of this field. Options are:
[S1(POS)] The S1 sleep mode is a low power state. In this state,
no system context is lost (CPU or chipset) and hard-
ware maintains all system context.
[S3(STR)] The S3 sleep mode is a lower power state where the
information of system configuration and open appli-
cations/files is saved to main memory that remains
powered while most other hardware components turn
off to save energy. The information stored in memory
will be used to restore the system when a
“wake up”
event occurs.
Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN N
This feature allows users to configure the power button function. Settings
are:
[Instant-Off] The power button functions as a normal power-on/-off button.
[Delay 4 Sec.] When you press the power button, the computer enters the
suspend/sleep mode, but if the button is pressed for more
than four seconds, the computer is turned off.
