Description
This item allows you to enable or disable the
ACPI function
This item specifies the power saving modes for
ACPI function. S1(POS): The S1 sleep mode is a
low power state. In this state, no system context
(CPU or chipset) is lost and hardware maintains
all system context. S3 (STR): The S3 sleep
mode is s power-down state in which power is
supplied only to essential components such as
main memory and wake-capable devices and all
system context is saved to main memory. The
information stored in memory will be used to
restore the PC to the previous state when an
wake-up event occurs.
This option allows you to select the type (or
degree) of power saving for Doze, Standby, and
Suspend modes.
Determines the manner in which the monitor is
blanked.
