Green PC Implementation Disclaimers
Green PC Responsibility belongs to System Integrator
The system integrator must be responsible for Green PC compliance. American Megatrends has simply
supplied the means to meet the Green PC requirements and cannot be held responsible for final system
assembly.
When to Disable Sleep Mode
If a computer will be running an application that requires long durations of microprocessor activity with no
input from the keyboard, mouse, COM1, or COM2, Sleep Mode should be disabled in WinBIOS Setup.
If Sleep Mode is not disabled, the system will switch to sleep mode and the system performance will be
greatly decreased. Some examples of such applications are: file servers, CAD systems, software compilers,
screen savers, and many more.
No Need for Screen Savers
Important
Screen saver software should not be used with
Sleep Mode enabled.
Sleep Mode serves the same purpose as a screen saver and obviates the need for a screen saver.
Buses are Slowed during Sleep Mode
The VL-Bus and ISA bus run at a slow speed during Sleep Mode when the Low Speed Timeout option is
set to Enabled in Power Management Setup.
Some VL-Bus adapter cards cannot run at a slow speed. Do not set the Power Management Setup Low
Speed Timeout option to Enabled if any VL-Bus adapter cards are installed.
