Wake up by PCI Card
When the system enters a Soft-off mode (Standby power exist but system is not working), it will wake up
system when specific signals occurred. The BIOS monitors the system for “activity” to determine when to
enable power management.
If you enable this feature, the computer specifies that any signal noticed on the PCI (Peripheral Component
Interconnect) bus channel must make go out from the hibernation state. The choices: Enabled, Disabled.
Power On by Ring
An input signal on the serial Ring Indicator (RI) line (in other words, an incoming call on the modem)
awakens the system from a soft off state. The choices: Enabled, Disabled.
Reload Global Timer Events
Primary/Secondary IDE 0/1
FDD, COM, LPT Port
PCI PIRQ [A-D]#
The events are I/O events whose occurrence can prevent the system from entering a power saving mode
or can awaken the system from such a mode. In effect, the system remains alert for anything, which occurs
to a device, which is configured as Enabled, even when the system is in a power down mode. The choices
are Enabled, and Disabled.
After you have made your selections in the Power Management setup, press the <ESC> key to go back
to the main program screen.

with its own special components. This section covers some very technical items and it is strongly recom-
