3.7 Power Management Setup

The Power Management Setup allows you to configure your system to minimize energy

consumption, according to your own style of computer use.

ACPI Function

This item allows you to enable/disable the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface

(ACPI).

ACPI Suspend Type

Select the ACPI Suspend Type: “S1 (POS)” or “S3 (STR)”.

If your expansion cards do not support the STR function, you must leave this field on “S1

(POS)” setting. The STR (Suspend-to-RAM) is an energy-saving feature. It takes only a few

seconds to wake up the system and return to the previous situation.

NOTE: This feature (STR) requires an ATX power supply with at least 720mA + 5V

Otherwise, the system will fail to return from suspend mode.
