This field allows you to select the method of powering off your
system.
Delay 4 Sec.
Regardless of whether the Power Management
function is enabled or disabled, if the power but-
ton is pushed and released in less than 4 sec, the
system enters the Suspend mode. The purpose of
this function is to prevent the system from
powering off in case you accidentally “hit” or
pushed the power button. Push and release again
in less than 4 sec to restore. Pushing the power
button for more than 4 seconds will power off
the system.
Instant-Off
Pressing and then releasing the power button at
once will immediately power off your system.
3.1.5.9 Run VGABIOS if S3 Resume
When this field is set to Auto, the system will initialize the VGA
BIOS when it wakes up from the S3 state. This can be configured
only if the “ACPI Suspend Type” field is set to “S3(STR)”.
