ACPI Function
Default: Enabled
This mainboard supports ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power
management Interface). Use this item to enable or disable the ACPI feature.
ACPI Suspend Type
Default: S1 (POS)
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 – the system shuts down with the
exception of a refresh current to the system memory.
Power Management
Default: User Define
This item acts like a master switch for the power-saving modes and hard disk
timeouts. If this item is set to Max Saving, power-saving modes occur after a
short timeout. If this item is set to Min Saving, power-saving modes occur after a
longer timeout. If the item is set to User Define, you can insert your own timeouts
for the power-saving modes.
Video Off Method
Default: DPMS
This item defines how the video is powered down to save power. As a default,
this is set to DPMS (display power management software).
Video Off In Suspend
Default: Yes
This option defines if the video is powered down when the system is put into
suspend mode.
Suspend Type
Default: Stop Grant
If this item set to Default "Stop Grant", the CPU will go into the Idle Mode.
Modem Use IRQ
Default: 3
If you want an incoming call on a modem to automatically resume the system
from a power-saving mode, use this item to specify the interrupt request line
(IRQ) that is used by the modem. You might have to connect the fax/modem to a
mainboard Wake On Modem connector for this feature to work.
Suspend Mode
Default: Disabled
If you have selected User Define for the
Power Management
item, you can set
this item to a timeouts from 1 Min to 1 Hour. The system will go into the power-
saving suspend mode if the timeout passes without any system activity.
HDD Power Down
Default: Disabled
If you have selected User Define for the Power Management item, you can set
this item to a selection of timeouts from 1 to 15 minutes. The hard disk drive will
power down if the selected timeout passes without any activity on the hard disk.
Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN
Default: Instant-Off
Under ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power management Interface) you
can create a software power down. In a software power down, the system can be
resumed by Wake Up Alarms. This item lets you install a software power down
that is controlled by the normal power button on your system. If the item is set to
Instant-Off, then the power button causes a software power down. If the item is
set to Delay 4 Sec. Then you have to hold the power button down for four
seconds to cause a software power down.
