ACPI stands for
“Advanced Configuration and Power Interface”. ACPI is a
standard that defines power and configuration management interfaces be-
tween an operating system and the BIOS. In other words, it is a standard that
describes how computer components work together to manage system
hardware. In order to use this function the ACPI specification must be sup-
ported by the OS (for example, W indows2000 or W indowsXP). The available
setting values are: Enabled and Disabled.

W hen you select

supply status will remain as it is, in S1 mode the computer can be resumed
at any time. When 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 memory, and the computer can quickly return to previous status when the
STR function wakes. W hen you select
“S1 & S3” mode, the system will
automatically select the delay time.
