ASUS P3C-L / P3C-S / P3C-LS User’s Manual 77

4. BIOS SETUP

Power Menu

Video Off Option [Suspend -> Off ]

This field determines when to activate the video OFF feature for monitor

power management. Configuration options: [Always On] [Suspend -> Off]

Video Off Method [DPMS OFF]

This field defines the video OFF features. The DPMS (Display Power Man-

agement System) feature allows the BIOS to control the video display card if

it supports the DPMS feature. [Blank Screen] only blanks the screen (use this

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. Configuration options: [Blank Screen] [V/H SYNC+Blank] [DPMS

Standby] [DPMS Suspend] [DPMS OFF] [DPMS Reduce ON]

HDD Power Down [Disabled]

Shuts down any IDE hard disk drives in the system after a period of inac-

tivity as set in this user-configurable field. This feature does not affect

SCSI hard drives. Configuration options: [Disabled] [1 Min] [2 Min] [3

Min]...[15 Min]

Suspend-to-RAM Capability [Disabled]

Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is an energy-saving feature. In Suspend-to-RAM

state, all devices on the computer are turned OFF, except for the system

RAM. Thus, the PC consumes less than 5 Watts of power. [Auto] allows

the BIOS to detect if your power supply can supply at least 720mA on the

+5VSB lead to support the STR function. If the power supply meets the

requirement, the STR function will be enabled; if not, this function will be

disabled. If the expansion cards you use on the motherboard do not support

the STR function, you must leave this field on the default setting [Disabled].

Configuration options: [Auto] [Disabled]

Suspend Mode [Disabled]

Sets the time period before the system goes into suspend mode. Configu-

ration options: [Disabled] [1~2 Min] [2~3 Min] [4~5 Min]...[1 Hour]

PWR Button < 4 Secs [Soft off]

When set to [Soft off], the ATX switch can be used as a normal system

power-OFF button when pressed for less than 4 seconds. [Suspend] allows

the button to have a dual function where pressing less than 4 seconds will

place the system in sleep mode. Regardless of the setting, holding the ATX

switch for more than 4 seconds will power OFF the system. Configuration

options: [Soft off] [Suspend]
