II. FEATURES Features II. FEATURES Intelligent Features: • Auto Fan Off: The system fans will power off automatically even in sleep mode. This function reduces both energy consumption and system noise, and is an important feature in implementing silent PC systems. • Dual Function Power Button: Pushing the power button for less than 4 seconds when the system is in the working state places the system into one of two states: sleep mode or soft-off mode, depending on the BIOS setting (see "Power Management Setup" under BIOS SOFTWARE). When the power button is pressed for more than 4 seconds, the system enters the soft-off mode regardless of the BIOS setting. • Keyboard Power Up: Keyboard Power Up can be enabled or disabled to allow the computer to be powered on by pressing the space bar on the keyboard. • Message LED (requires ACPI OS support): Turbo LEDs now act as information providers. Through the way a particular LED illuminates, the user can determine the stage the computer is in. A simple glimpse provides useful information to the user. • Remote Ring On (requires external modem): This allows a computer to be turned on remotely through an external modem. With this benefit on-hand, any user can access vital information from their computer from anywhere in the world! • System Resources Alert: Today's operating systems such as Windows 95/98/ NT and OS/2, require much more memory and hard drive space to present enormous user interfaces and run large applications. The system resource monitor will warn the user before the system resources are used up to prevent possible application crashes. Suggestions will give the user information on managing their limited resources more efficiently. 10 ASUS P2B-VM User's Manual
