Suspend To RAM Installation (Optional)
A.1 Introduce STR function:
Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is a Windows 98 ACPI sleep mode function. When recovering from
STR (S3) sleep mode, the system is able, in just a few seconds, to retrieve the last “state” of the
system before it went to sleep and recover to that state. The “state” is stored in memory (RAM)
before the system goes to sleep. During STR sleep mode, your system uses only enough energy
to maintain critical information and system functions, primarily the system state and the ability to
recognize various “wake up” triggers or signals, respectively.
A.2 STR function Installation
Please use the following steps to complete the STR function installation.
Step-By-Step Setup

Putting Windows 98 into ACPI mode is fairly easy.
