Power Management

This section of the BIOS manages power settings in operating systems other than Windows 98 or above, or operating
systems using ACPI power management. In Windows 98 or above, power management is controlled through the
Power Management window in My Computer, and BIOS power management settings have NO effect. In other
operating systems that use ACPI power management, BIOS settings likewise have no effect.

To save power, you may select the time the computer may idle before going into standby, or a low power state, then
into suspend mode. (See Chapter 5 Power Management for an introduction to suspend modes.)
