Modem Use IRQ:
(Default setting: 3 )
This mainboard has the ACPI feature designed on the board and it will “wakeup”
automatically when it detects the incoming modem Ring-in signal. Before you can
use the Ring-in signal to wakeup your PC system, you have to install the “External”
modem to your PC system and tell the PC system which serial port connects to the
modem by selecting the IRQ in this field. ( officially, COM1 uses IRQ4, and COM2
uses IRQ3 )
The choices: NA, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11
Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN : (
Default setting: “Instant-Off.”)
This selection field allows you to select the function of the PW switch. When ATX
power supply is connected to the mainboard, you can select "Instant-Off" or " Delay
4 Sec.". If you select "Instant-Off", the PC system will be powered off immediately
when you click on the PW switch. If you select or " Delay 4 Sec.", you will have to
press and hold the PW switch for more than 4 second and then the system will be
powered off.

when the system is in a power down mode.

When set to
