Suspend Mode

In User Define mode a hold time can be set here. The following values are available: Disable (off) 1 Min , 2 Min , 4

Min, 8 Min , 12 Min , 20 Min , 30Min , 40 Min , 1 Hour. The setting in Min Saving mode is 1 minute. With Max Saving

the hold time is set to 1 hour.

HDD Power Down

Here you can specify after which period of inactivity the hard disk is switched off. This option is only available for IDE

hard disks. Settings: Disabled or 1 to 15 minutes. This option should be used with caution, since frequent switching

on and off is more damaging to the hard disk than beneficial in terms of energy saving.

Wake-Up by PCI card

This option can be used to start your PC from another PC via a network by sending a wake-up frame or signal.

Power On by Ring

The system starts when the phone rings, if an external modem is connected to the onboard serial port.

FDD, COM, LPT Port

If one of these menu items is set to "Monitor", the AMI-BIOS monitors the IRQ of the respective connection or device

(and therefore the connection or device itself) for activity while in energy-saving mode. If activity is detected, the

system switches from the respective energy-saving mode to normal mode. The AMI-BIOS resets the standby and

suspend idle time to zero if activity is detected on a specified IRQ.

PCI PIRQ[A-D]#

This option can be used to influence the power management timing. If the option is enabled, a countdown

commences that is interrupted as soon as the INTA~INTD signal becomes active. The system is reset to zero.
