IV. Suspend to RAM Installation (Optional)
A.1 Introduce STR function:
Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is a Windows 98 ACPI sleep mode function. When
recovering from STR (S3) sleep mode, the system is able, in just a few
seconds, to retrieve the last "state" of the system before it went to sleep and
recover to that state. The "state" is stored in memory (RAM) before the
system goes to sleep. During STR sleep mode, your system uses only
enough energy to maintain critical information and system functions,
primarily the system state and the ability to recognize various "wake up"
triggers or signals, respectively.
A.2 STR function Installation
Please use the following steps to complete the STR function installation.
Step-By-Step Setup
Step 1:
To utilize the STR function, the system must be in Windows 98 ACPI mode.
Putting Windows 98 into ACPI mode is fairly easy.
There are two ways to accomplish this:
1. Setup with Windows 98 CD:
A.
Insert the Windows 98 CD into your CD-ROM drive, select Start, and then
Run.
B.
Type (without quotes) "D:\setup /p j" in the window provided. Hit the
enter key or click OK.
(In Windows 98 second edition version, all the bios version dated
12/01/99 or later are ACPI compatible. Just type" D:\Setup", the
operating system will be installed as ACPI mode).
C.
After setup completes, remove the CD, and reboot your system
(This manual assumes that your CD-ROM device drive letter is D:).
