Power Management Setup

The Power Management Setup allows you to configure your system to
most effectively saving energy while operating in a manner consistent
with your own style of computer use.
ACPI Function
This item defines the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Man-
agement) feature that makes hardware status information available to
the operating system, enables a PC to turn its peripherals on or off for
improving the power management, and allows a PC turned on or off by
external devices, so that a mouse or keyboard can wake up it.
ACPI Suspend Type
This item allows you to select sleep state when suspend. In the default,
S1(POS), the suspend mode is equivalent to a software power down;
S3(STR), to the system that shuts down with the exception of a refresh
current to the system memory.
Ø The choice: S1(POS), S3(STR), or S1&S3.
Power Management
This item acts like a master switch for the power-saving modes and hard
disk timeouts. If this item is set to Max Saving, power-saving modes
occur after a short timeout. If it is set to Min Saving, power-saving
modes occur after a longer timeout. If it is set to User Define, you can
insert your own timeouts for the power-saving modes.
Ø The choice: Min Saving, Max Saving, or User Define.
