The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) can be “Enabled” or “Disabled”
with this item.

ACPI Suspend Type
Select the ACPI Suspend Type: “S1(POS)” or “S3(STR)”. If your expansion cards do
not support the STR (Suspend-to-RAM) function, you must leave this field on the
“S1(POS)” setting. STR is an energy-saving feature. It takes only a few seconds to
wake-up the system and return it to its previous situation.
NOTE: This function (STR) requires an ATX power supply with at least 720mA
and 5V standby power for the Advanced Configuration and Power
Interface (ACPI) functions. Otherwise, the system will fail to return
from suspend mode.
