4. BIOS SETUP

4.5 Power Menu

Power Savings [Customized]

This option must be enabled to use any of the automatic power saving features. If

this menu item is set to [Disabled], power management features will not function

regardless of other field settings on this menu. The [Customized] option allows you

to make your own selections in the Power menu. When set to [Maximum Power

Saving], the system will be put into power saving mode after a brief period of sys-

tem inactivity and system power will be conserved to its greatest amount. The Auto

Suspend Timeout field will then be set to predefined value that ensures maximum

power savings. In contrast, [Maximum Performance] allows a longer period of sys-

tem inactivity and consumes more power. [Disabled] disables the power saving fea-

tures. [Customized] allows you to set power saving options according to your pref-

erence. Configuration options: [Customized] [Disabled] [Maximum Performance]

[Maximum Power Saving]

IMPORTANT: Advanced Power Management (APM) should be installed to keep

the system time updated when the computer enters suspend mode activated by

the BIOS Power Management. For DOS environments, you need to add the

statement, DEVICE=C:\DOS\POWER.EXE, to your CONFIG.SYS file. For

Windows 3.x and Windows 95, you need to install Windows with the APM

feature. For Windows 98 and later, APM is automatically installed. A battery

and power cord icon labeled “Power Management” will appear in the “Control

Panel.” Choose “Advanced” in the Power Management Properties dialog box.
