Power Management Setup
This option lets you control system power management. The system has
various power-saving modes including powering down the hard disk, turning
off the video, suspending to RAM, and software power down that allows the
system to be automatically resumed by certain events.
Power Management Timeouts
The power-saving modes can be controlled by timeouts. If the system is
inactive for a time, the timeouts begin counting. If the inactivity continues so
that the timeout period elapses, the system enters a power-saving mode. If
any item in the list of Reload Global Timer Events is Enabled, then any activity
on that item will reset the timeout counters to zero.
Wake Up Calls
If the system is suspended, or has been powered down by software, it can be
resumed by a wake up call that is generated by incoming traffic to a modem, a
LAN card, a PCI card, or a fixed alarm on the system realtime clock.

ACPI Function (Enabled)
This mainboard supports ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power
management Interface). Use this item to enable or disable the ACPI feature.
Note: ACPI is a power management specification that makes hardware status
information available to the operating system. ACPI enables a PC to turn
its peripherals on and off for improved power management. It also allows
the PC to be turned on and off by external devices, so that mouse or
keyboard activity wakes up the computer.
