P4TDH BIOS Setup Suspend Type Select the Suspend Type. The Choices: Stop Grant (default), PwrOn Suspend. Modem Use IRQ This determines the IRQ, which can be applied in MODEM use. The Choices: 3 (default),4 / 5 / 7 / 9 / 10 / 11 / NA. Suspend Mode When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, all devices except the CPU will be shut off. The Choices: Disabled (default), 1Min, 2Min, 4Min, 8Min, 12Min, 20Min, 30Min, 40Min, 1Hour. HDD Power Down When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity , the hard disk drive will be powered down while all other devices remain active. The Choices: Disabled (default), 1Min, 2Min, 3Min, 4Min, 5Min, 6Min, 7Min, 8Min, 9Min, 10Min, 11Min, 12Min, 13Min, 14Min, 15Min. Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN Pressing the power button for more than 4 seconds forces the system to enter the Soft-Off state when the system has "hung." The Choices: Delay 4 Sec, Instant-Off (default). PWRON After PWR-Fail This field determines the action the system will automatically take when power is restored to a system that had lost power previously without any subsequent manual intervention. There are 3 sources that provide current to the CMOS area that retains these Power-On instructions; the motherboard battery (3V), the Power Supply (5VSB), and the Power Supply (3.3V). While AC is not supplying power, the motherboard uses the motherboard battery (3V). If AC power is supplied and the Power Supply is not turned on, 5VSB from the Power Supply is used. When the Power Supply is eventually turned on 3.3V from the Power Supply will be used. There are 3 options: "Former-Sts", "On", "Off". "Former-Sts" (default) "On" "Off" Means to maintain the last status of the CMOS when AC power is lost. Means always set CMOS to the "On" status when AC power is lost Means always set CMOS to the "Off" status when AC power is lost. 21

Modem Use IRQ
This determines the IRQ, which can be applied in MODEM use.
The Choices: 3
(default),4 / 5 / 7 / 9 / 10 / 11 / NA.
Suspend Mode
When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity, all devices except the CPU will be
shut off.
The Choices: Disabled
(default), 1Min, 2Min, 4Min, 8Min, 12Min, 20Min,
30Min, 40Min, 1Hour.
HDD Power Down
When enabled and after the set time of system inactivity , the hard disk drive will be
powered down while all other devices remain active.

8Min, 9Min, 10Min, 11Min, 12Min, 13Min, 14Min, 15Min.
Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN
Pressing the power button for more than 4 seconds forces the system to enter the
Soft-Off state when the system has “hung.”
The Choices:
Delay 4 Sec,
Instant-Off
(default).
PWRON After PWR-Fail
This field determines the action the system will automatically take when power is restored
to a system that had lost power previously without any subsequent manual intervention.
There are 3 sources that provide current to the CMOS area that retains these Power-On
instructions; the motherboard battery (3V), the Power Supply (5VSB), and the Power
Supply (3.3V). While AC is not supplying power, the motherboard uses the motherboard
battery (3V). If AC power is supplied and the Power Supply is not turned on, 5VSB from
the Power Supply is used. When the Power Supply is eventually turned on 3.3V from the
Power Supply will be used.
There are 3 options: “Former-Sts”, “On”, “Off”.
“Former-Sts”
(default)
Means to maintain the last status of the CMOS when AC
power is lost.
“On”
Means always set CMOS to the “On” status when AC
power is lost
“Off”
Means always set CMOS to the “Off” status when AC
power is lost.
