IV. BIOS SETUP Video Off Method (DPMS OFF) This field defines the video off features. These options are available: DPMS OFF, DPMS Reduce ON, Blank Screen, V/H SYNC+Blank, DPMS Standby, and DPMS Suspend. The DPMS (Display Power Management System) features allow the BIOS to control the video display card if it supports the DPMS feature. Blank Screen only blanks the screen (for monitors without power management or "green" features). If set up in your system, your screen saver will not display with Blank Screen selected). V/H SYNC+Blank blanks the screen and turns off vertical and horizontal scanning...PM Timers This section controls the time-out settings for the Power Management scheme. The fields included in this section are HDD Power Down, which places the hard disk into its lowest power consumption mode, and the Doze, Standby and Suspend system inactivation modes. The system automatically "wakes up" from any power saving mode when there is system activity, such as when a key is pressed from the keyboard, or when there is activity detected from the enabled IRQ channels. HDD Power Down (Disable) This shuts down any IDE hard disk drives in the system after a period of inactivity. This time period is user-configurable from 1 Min to 15 Min or Disable. This feature does not affect SCSI hard disks. Doze Mode, Standby Mode, Suspend Mode (Disable) These fields set the period of time after which each of these modes activate: 1 Min, 2 Min, 3 Min, 4 Min, 8 Min, 20 Min, 30 Min, 40 Min, or 1 Hour. The default setting is Disable...Power Up Control This section determines the ways the system can be controlled when it is started or restarted, when modem activity is detected, or when power to the computer is interrupted and reapplied. AC PWR Loss Restart (Disabled) This allows you to set how you want your system to boot up after the power has been interrupted. Disabled leaves your system off after reapplying power and Enabled boots up your system after reapplying power. Ring Power Up (Enable) This allows either settings of Enable or Disable for powering up the computer (turns the ATX power supply on) when the modem receives a call while the computer is off. NOTE: The computer cannot receive or transmit data until the computer and applications are fully running, thus connection cannot be made on the first try. Turning an external modem off and then back on while the computer is off causes an initialization string that will also cause the system to power on. IV.
