timer is set and matched.

Sleep Mode (ACPI)
If ACPI is installed, all power management functions are handled
by the Windows operating system. In this set-up, you do not
need to set timeout values for devices before they enter a power
saving mode. For more information on ACPI, see “Advanced
Configuration and Power Interface” on page 46.
Sleep mode may be one of three computer power saving modes:
standby, hibernation or power off. Windows automatically
determines which of these modes to enter in.
To enter Sleep mode under ACPI:
❑
Press the Sleep hot key Fn-F4 .
❑
Idle times for devices and the computer determined by
Windows 98 elapses
Exiting sleep mode depends on which power saving mode the
computer is currently in.
