Award BIOS Setup Program

H. Standby Mode
The Power Management function must not be set to disabled to enable this function.
If the system runs in Doze mode and the Standby timer expires, the system will
enter Standby mode. In Standby mode, the hard disk drive and the monitor shut
off while all other devices still operate at full speed. Note that the Video Off
and HDD Power Down functions in Figure 3-5 provide the same power saving
options found in Standby mode. The priority for determining which function
controls power saving for the monitor and hard drive is determined by which
timer expires first.
I. Suspend Mode
The Power Management function must not be set to disabled to enable this function.
If the system runs in Standby mode and the Suspend timer expires, all devices
regulated by power management will shut off and the CPU speed will be 0 MHz.
J. HDD Power Down
The Power Management function must not be set to disabled to enable this function.
When the HDD idle time has elapsed, BIOS sends a command to the hard disk
to turn off the motor. Set a time between 1 and 15 to indicate time required
to wait before the hard drive enters a power saving mode. Some old hard drives
may not support this function.
K. Throttle Duty Cycle
When the system enters Doze mode, the CPU clock runs only part of the
time. You may select the percent of time that the clock runs.
L. Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN
When set to Delay 4 Sec., this function allows the power button to put the system
in Suspend, a power saving mode. See Section 2-4 for operation instructions
of the over-ride power button operation wich puts the system in Suspend mode.
When set to Instant-Off the Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN function is disabled and
the computer turns completely off when the power button is pressed.
M. CPUFAN Off In Suspend
When enabled, this function turns off the CPU fan when the computer is in suspend
mode.
