S3-related functions described in this section are available only when
your BIOS supports S3 sleep mode.
Sleep State
This item specifies the power saving modes for ACPI function. Options are:
[S1/POS]
The S1 sleep mode is a low power state. In this state, no
system context is lost (CPU or chipset) and hardware main-
tains all system context.
[S3/STR]
The S3 sleep mode is a lower power state where the informa-
tion of system configuration and open applications/files is saved
to main memory that remains powered while most other hard-
ware components turn off to save energy.
The information
stored in memory will be used to restore the system when a
“wake up” event occurs.
[Auto]
BIOS determines the best mode automatically.
Re-call VGA BIOS at S3 Resuming
Selecting [Enabled] allows BIOS to call VGA BIOS to initialize the VGA card when
system wakes up (resumes) from S3 sleep state. The system resume time is short-
ened when you disable the function, but system will need an AGP driver to initialize
