ACPI Function
This item is to activate the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Management
Interface) Function. If your operating system is ACPI-aware, such as Windows 2000/
XP, select [Enabled].
ACPI Standby State
This item specifies the power saving modes for ACPI function. If your operating
system supports ACPI, such as Windows 2000/ XP, you can choose to enter the
Standby mode in S1 (POS) or S3 (STR) fashion through the setting of this field.
Settings are:
[S1] The S1 sleep mode is a low power state. In this state, no system context
is lost (CPU or chipset) and hardware maintains all system contexts.
[S3] The S3 sleep mode is a lower power state where the in formation of
system configuration and open applications/files is saved to main memory that
remains powered while most other hardware components turn off to save
energy. The information stored in memory will be used to restore the system
when a “wake up” event occurs.
Power Button Function
This feature sets the function of the power button. Settings are:
[On/ Off] The power button functions as normal power off button.
[Suspend] When you press the power button, the computer enters the
suspend/sleep mode, but if the button is pressed for more than four seconds,
the computer is turned off.
