Power Management Features

ACPI Standby State

This item specifies the power saving modes for ACPI function. If your operating

system supports ACPI, such as Windows 98SE, Windows ME and Windows

2000, you can choose to enter the Standby mode in S1(POS) or S3(STR) fashion

through the setting of this field. Options are:

S1/POS The S1 sleep mode is a low power state. In this state, no

system context is lost (CPU or chipset) and hardware

maintains all system context.

S3/STR The S3 sleep mode is a lower power state where the in

formation of system configuration and open applications/

files is saved to main memory that remains powered

while most other hardware components turn off to save

energy. The information stored in memory will be used

to restore the system when a “wake up” event occurs.

Auto BIOS determines the best mode automatically.

MSI Reminds You...

S3-related functions described in this section are available only

when your BIOS supports S3 sleep mode.
