ACPI Suspend Type
Use this item to define how your system suspends. In the default, S1

you select S3 (STR), the suspend mode is a suspend to RAM – the
system shuts down with the exception of a refresh current to the system
memory.

The choice: S1 (POS), S3 (STR).
This option displays items that let you control the system power man-
agement. Modern operating systems take care of much of the power
management. This mainboard supports ACPI (Advanced Configuration
and Power Interface). The system has various power saving modes
including powering down the hard disk, turning off the video, suspend-
ing to RAM, and a software power down that allows the system to be
automatically resumed by certain events.
Wake Up Calls
If the system is suspended, or has been powered down by software, it
can be resumed by a wake up call that is generated by incoming traffic
to a modem, a PCI card, or a fixed alarm on the system realtime clock.
