IMPORTANT Advanced Power Management (APM) should be installed to keep the system time updated when the computer enters suspend mode activated by the BIOS Power Management. For DOS environments, you need to add the statement, DEVICE=C:\DOS\POWER.EXE, to your CONFIG.SYS file. For Windows 3.x and Windows 95, you need to install Windows with the APM feature. For Windows 98 and later, APM is automatically installed. A battery and power cord icon labeled "Power Management" appears in the "Control Panel." Choose "Advanced" in the Power Management Properties dialog box. Video Off Option [Suspend -> Off ] This field determines when to activate the video off feature for monitor power management. Configuration options: [Always On] [Suspend > Off] Video Off Method [DPMS OFF] This field defines the video off features. The DPMS (Display Power Management System) feature allows the BIOS to control the video display card if it supports the DPMS feature. [Blank Screen] only blanks the screen (use this for monitors without power management or "green" features. If set up in your system, your screen saver does not run with [Blank Screen] selected). [V/H SYNC+Blank] blanks the screen and turns off vertical and horizontal scanning. Configuration options: [Blank Screen] [V/H SYNC+Blank] [DPMS Standby] [DPMS Suspend] [DPMS OFF] [DPMS Reduce ON] HDD Power Down [Disabled] Shuts down any IDE hard disk drives in the system after a period of inactivity as set in this user-configurable field. This feature does not affect SCSI hard drives. Configuration options: [Disabled] [1 Min] [2 Min] [3 Min]...[15 Min] Suspend-to-RAM Capability [Disabled] Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is an energy-saving feature. In Suspend-toRAM state, all devices on the computer are turned off, except for the system RAM. Thus, the PC only consumes less than 5 watts of power. Select [Enabled] if your power supply can provide at least 720mA on the +5VSB lead to support the STR function. If the expansion card you use on the motherboard do not support the STR function, you must leave this field to the default setting [Disabled]. Note that this field is only effective if you are using Windows 98. Configuration options: [Enabled] [Disabled] 98 Chapter 5: BIOS Information
