BIOS SETUP
•••••
ACPI Suspend Type
Select the ACPI Suspend Type: “S1 (POS)” or “S3 (STR)”. If your expansion cards do
not support the STR function, you must leave this field on “S1 (POS)” setting. The STR
(Suspend-to-RAM) is an energy-saving feature. It takes only a few seconds to wake up
the system and return to the previous situation.

Power Management
This category allows you to select the type (or degree) of power saving and is directly
related to the following modes:
1. Suspend Mode
2. HDD Power Down
There are three selections for Power Management. Two of them have fixed mode
settings.
1. Min. Power Saving:
Minimum power management mode. Inactivity period is defined below:
Suspend Mode = 1 hr.
HDD Power Down = 15 min.
2. Max. Power Saving:
Maximum power management mode. Inactivity period is defined below:
Suspend Mode = 1 min.
HDD Power Down = 1 min.
3. User Define:
Allows you to set each mode individually. Select the time-out period for each
mode shown above.
NOTE: This feature (STR) requires an ATX power supply with at least 720mA and
5V standby power for the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
(ACPI) functions. Otherwise, the system will fail to return from suspend
mode.
