BIOS
Green PC Monitor Power State
This option specifies the power state that a green PC-compliant monitor
enters when BIOS places it in a power saving state after the specified
period of display inactivity has expired. The settings include Standby, Sus-
pend and Off.
Video Power Down Mode
This option specifies the power state that the VGA video subsystem enters
after the specified period of display inactivity has expired. The settings
include Disabled, Standby and Suspend.
Hard Disk Power Down Mode
This option specifies the power conserving state that the hard disk drive(s)
enters after the specified period of inactivity has expired. The settings
include Disabled, Standby and Suspend.
Hard Disk Time Out (Minutes)
This option specifies the length of hard disk inactivity time that should expire
before entering the power conserving state specified in the previous set-
ting. The settings include Disabled and increments of 1-15 minutes.
Display Activity
This option specifies if BIOS is to monitor for display activity when in a
power saving state. The Ignore setting means any display activity will not
wake the system up from a power management state. The Monitor setting
allows display activity to wake up the system from a power management
state.
Manual Throttle Ratio
When in a power management state, throttling can be used to lower power
consumption and reduce heat. This option allows the CPU to operate at a
reduced average power, which includes a sacrifice in performance. The
settings include 87.5%, 75.0%, 62.5%, 50%, 37.5%, 25% and 12.5%. (A
setting of 75.0% means the BIOS will throttle back the CPU clock to operate
75% of the time.)
