ACPI Function

Use this item to enable or disable the ACPI
function.

Power
Management

This item acts like a master switch for the power-
saving modes and hard disk timeouts. If this item
is set to Max Saving, 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.

ACPI Suspend
Type

This item defines how your system suspends.
S1(POS), the suspend mode is equivalent to a
software power down. If 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.

PM Control by
APM

This field allows you to control the PC Monitor’s
power management features via Intel-Microsoft
Advanced Power Management software. Once
you have enabled the APM interface, some
settings made in the BIOS Setup program may be
