Power Management (User Define)
This item acts like a master switch for the power-saving
modes and hard disk timeouts. If this item is set to Max Sav-
ing, power-saving modes occur after a short timeout. If this
item is set to Min Saving, power-saving modes occur after a
longer timeout. If the item is set to User Define, you can insert
your own timeouts for the power-saving modes.
HDD Power Down (Disable)
The IDE hard drive will spin down if it is not accessed within a
specified length of time. Options are from 1 Min to 15 Min and
Disable.
Doze Mode (Disable)
The system speed will change from turbo to slow if no Power
Management events occur for a specified length of time. Full
power function will return when a Power Management event is
detected.
