Selecting "Enabled" will enable the power management timer when a no

activity event is detected in the VGA. Selecting "Disabled" will disable

IRQ# Activity

After the time period which you set in the Suspend Mode feature elapses,

the system advances from Doze Mode to Suspend Mode, in which the

CPU clock stops and the screen display is off. At this moment, if the IRQ

activity which is defined as enabled occurs, the system goes directly back

to Full-on Mode.
If the IRQ activity which is defined as "Disabled" occurs, the system

enters another low power state, Dream Mode. In Dream Mode, the system

will function the same as in Full-on Mode, except that the screen display

remains off until the corresponding IRQ handler finishes, whereupon the

system reverts to Suspend Mode.
For instance, if the system is connected to a LAN and receives an

interruption from its file server, the system will enter Dream Mode to

execute the corresponding calling routine.
The options are: Enabled, Disabled.
The default values of IRQ3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 are all:

Enabled.
The default value of IRQ8 is: Disabled.
