ACPI stands for
“Advanced Configuration and Power Interface”. ACPI is a standard
that defines power and configuration management interfaces between an operating
system and the BIOS. In other words, it is a standard that describes how com
puter components work together to manage system hardware. In order to use
this function the ACPI specification must be supported by the OS (for example,
Windows2000 or WindowsXP).

ACPI Suspend Type (Default: S1 (POS))
This option is used to set the energy saving mode of the ACPI function.W hen

“S1 (P0S)” mode, the power will not shut off and the power supply
status will remain as it is. In S1 mode the computer can be resumed at any
time. W hen you select
“S3 (STR)” mode, the power will be cut off after a delay
period. The status of the computer before it enters STR will be saved in me-
