8. When the computer restarts, go to BIOS setup utility. On the BIOS setup utility screen, change AMT Setup Prompt to Disabled. 9. Press the F10 key to save the settings, and press the Y key. When using the computer with the AC adaptor connected and the AMT function set to enabled, power might still be supplied to the system memory even when the computer power is turned off, or the computer is in Sleep Mode or Hibernation Mode. When connecting the AC adaptor, the computer is powered and can be turned on. If the power is automatically turned off after approximately 5 to 7 seconds, it is because the RTC lasting time runs out, and the settings of AMT function have been cleared. This is normal and not an error. If it occurs, the settings of AMT function must be reconfigured. If there is a problem when you start the computer, or initialize the Management Engine (ME) firmware after the RTC lasting time runs out, the system will automatically reset itself during setup. This is the function of AMT configurations and is not an error. Enabling the AMT function might cause the network LAN Enable/ Disable items to be no longer changeable in BIOS setup utility. Consult with your system administrator about details. AMT function cannot be operated using a USB-LAN adaptor. The useable system memory for models equipped with the AMT function is 16 - 64 MB, less than that of models not equipped with the AMT function. The amount of the difference depends on the amount of memory installed. Notes for system administrators Intel AMT is enabled by default in the Management Engine (ME) firmware. Both the security of management console and the network management must be thoroughly implemented through management of AMT function. Otherwise administrator privileges might be abused by other parties which possibly lead to the leak of sensitive and/or proprietary information, data loss, HDD/SSD erasure, or file overwritten.
