Video Off Method (DPMS Support)
This item defines how the video is powered down to save power. This item is set to DPMS
(Display Power Management Software) by default.
MODEM Use IRQ (3)
If you want an incoming call on a modem to automatically resume the system from a power-
saving mode, use this item to specify the interrupt request line (IRQ) that is used by the
modem. You might have to connect the fax/modem to the motherboard Wake On Modem
connector for this feature to work.
Soft-Off by PWRBTN (Instant Off)
Under ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power management Interface) you can create a
software power down. In a software power down, the system can be resumed by Wake Up
Alarms. This item lets you install a software power down that is controlled by the power
button on your system. If the item is set to Instant-Off, then the power button causes a
software power down. If the item is set to Delay 4 Sec. then you have to hold the power
button down for four seconds to cause a software power down.
PWRON After PWR-Fail (Off)
This item enables your computer to automatically restart or return to its operating status.
ACPI Suspend Type (S3(STR)
Use this item to define how your system suspends. In the default, S3 (STR), the suspend
mode is a suspend to RAM, i.e., the system shuts down with the exception of a refresh
current to the system memory.
