Power Management Setup
This option lets you control system power management. The system has various
power-saving modes including powering down the hard disk, turning off the video,
suspending to RAM, and software power down that allows the system to be
automatically resumed by certain events.
ACPI Suspend Type
Use this item to define how your system suspends. In the default, 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, i.e., the system shuts down with the exception of
a refresh current to the system memory.
!
Run VGABIOS if S3 Resume
This item allows the system to initialize the VGA BIOS from S3 (Suspend to RAM)
sleep state.
!
USB Dev Wake-Up From S3
When set to Enabled, the system power will resume the system from a power saving
mode if there is any USB port activity.
Suspend Type
If this item is set to the default Stop Grant, the CPU will go into Idle Mode during
power saving mode.
