Slow Clock Ratio This option specifies the speed at which the system clock runs in power

saving states. The settings are expressed as a ratio between the normal CPU
clock speed and the CPU clock speed when the computer is in the power-
conserving state. The settings are 1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16, 1:32, 1:64, and
1:128. The Optimal and Fail-Safe defaults are 1:8.

Display Activity This option specifies if AMIBIOS is to monitor display activity for power

conservation purposes. When this option is set to Monitor and there is no
display activity for the length of time specified in the Standby Timeout
(Minutes)
option, the computer enters a power savings state. The settings are
Monitor or Ignore. The Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings are Ignore.
