3.5 Power Management
This option displays a table of items that lets you control the system’ s
power management. Modern operating systems take care of many routine
power management chores. This motherboard supports ACPI (advanced
configuration and power interface).
This system supports three power-saving modes: doze mode, standby
mode and suspend mode. Standby mode uses less power than doze mode,
while suspend mode uses the least amount of power.

The power management function in the setup utility lets you specify
timeout periods for the activation of each of the power-saving modes, as well
as a timeout period for a hard disk drive power down. A timeout is simply a
period of system or hard disk inactivity. At the end of a timeout, your
computer may enter a power-saving mode or its hard disk drive may power
down, depending on how you have configured your system.
