K8M800 Micro AM2 BIOS Setup
Video Off Method
This option determines the manner in which the monitor is goes blank.
V/H SYNC+Blank
This selection will cause the system to turn off the vertical and horizontal
synchronization ports and write blanks to the video buffer.
Blank Screen
This option only writes blanks to the video buffer.
DPMS
Initial display power management signaling.
MODEM Use IRQ
This determines the IRQ, which can be applied in MODEM use.
The Choices: 3 (default)/ 4 / 5 / 7 / 9 / 10 / 11 / NA
Soft-Off by PWR-BTN
Pressing the power button for more than 4 seconds forces the system to enter the
Soft-Off state when the system has "hung."
The Choices: Delay 4 Sec, Instant-Off (default).
Run VGABIOS if S3 Resume
Choosing Enabled will make BIOS run VGA BIOS to initialize the VGA card when
system wakes up from S3 state. The system time is shortened if you disable the function,
but system will need AGP driver to initialize the card. So, if the AGP driver of the VGA
card does not support the initialization feature, the display may work abnormally or not
function after S3.
The Choices: Auto (default), Yes, No.
Ac Loss Auto Restart
This field determines the action the system will automatically take when power is restored
to a system that had lost power previously without any subsequent manual intervention.
There are 3 sources that provide current to the CMOS area that retains these Power-On
instructions; the motherboard battery (3V), the Power Supply (5VSB), and the Power
Supply (3.3V). While AC is not supplying power, the motherboard uses the motherboard
battery (3V). If AC power is supplied and the Power Supply is not turned on, 5VSB from
the Power Supply is used. When the Power Supply is eventually turned on 3.3V from the
Power Supply will be used.
There are 3 options: "Former-Sts", "On", "Off".
"Off" (default) Means always set CMOS to the "Off" status when AC power is lost.
"On" Means always set CMOS to the "On" status when AC power is lost
"Former-Sts" Means to maintain the last status of the CMOS when AC power is lost.
