Chapter 6 BIOS and System Setup
Doze Mode
When enabled, and after the set time of system inactivity, the CPU clock will
run at a slower speed while all other devices still operate at full speed.
Standby Mode
After the selected period of system inactivity, the fixed disk drive and the
video shut off while all other devices still operate at full speed.
Suspend Mode
When enabled, and after the set time of system inactivity, all devices
except the CPU will be shut off.
HDD Power Down
When enabled, and after the set time of system inactivity, the hard disk
drive will be powered down while all other devices remain active.
Throttle Duty Cycle
When the system enters Doze mode, the CPU clock runs only part of the
time. You may select the percent of time that the clock runs.
PCI/VGA Act-Monitor
When enabled, any video activity restarts the global timer for Standby
mode. The default setting is Disabled.
Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN
This field defines the power-off mode when using an ATX power supply.
The Instant-Off mode allows powering off immediately upon pressing
the power button. In the Delay 4 Sec mode, the system powers off when
the power button is pressed for more than four seconds or places the
system in a very low-power-usage state, with only enough circuitry
receiving power to detect power button activity. The default value is
Instant-Off.
Resume by Alarm
This allows a computer to be turned on automatically through the timer
set in the BIOS to make the system more scheduleable. By default, this
field is set to Disabled.
IRQ 8 Break Suspend
You can enable or disable the monitoring of IRQ 8 (Real Time Clock) so
it does not awaken the system from Suspend mode.
