Description
This item is to activate the ACPI (Advanced
Configuration and Power Management Interface)
Function. If your operating system is ACPI-
aware, such as Windows 98SE/2000/Me, select
Enabled.
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. S1&S3: Both S1
and S3 will be adopted.
