Introduction
ages the Plug and Play BIOS data structures while providing a processor
architecture-independent implementation that is compatible with both Win-
dows 98 and 2000.
Note: To utilize ACPI, you must reinstall Windows 98/2000. You can check
to see if ACPI has been properly installed by looking for it in the Device
Manager, which is located in the Control Panel in Windows.
Microsoft OnNow
The OnNow design initiative is a comprehensive, system-wide approach to
system and device power control. OnNow is a term for a PC that is always
on but appears to be off and responds immediately to user or other re-
quests.
Slow Blinking LED for Suspend-State Indicator
When the CPU goes into a suspend state, the chassis power LED will start
blinking to indicate that the CPU is in suspend mode. When the user presses
any key, the CPU will wake-up and the LED will automatically stop blinking and
remain on.
Main Switch Override Mechanism
When an ATX power supply is used, the power button can function as a system
suspend button. When the user depresses the power button, the system will
enter a SoftOff state. The monitor will be suspended and the hard drive will spin
down. Depressing the power button again will cause the whole system to wake-
up. During the SoftOff state, the ATX power supply provides power to keep the
required circuitry in the system alive. In case the system malfunctions and you
want to turn off the power, just depress and hold the power button for 4 seconds.
The power will turn off and no power will be provided to the motherboard.
External Modem Ring-On
Wake-up events can be triggered by a device such as the external modem ringing
when the system is in the SoftOff state. Note that external modem ring-on can
only be used with an ATX 2.01 (or above) compliant power supply.
