Power Management

AC Recovery

Determines what happens when AC power is restored to the computer.

 

 

Auto Power On

Sets the computer to automatically turn on. Choices are every day or every

 

Monday through Friday.

 

The default setting is Off.

 

This feature does not work if you turn off your computer using a power strip

 

or surge protector.

 

 

Auto Power Time

Sets time to automatically turn on the computer.

 

Time is kept in a 24-hour format (hours:minutes). Change the start-up time

 

by pressing the right- or left-arrow key to increase or decrease the numbers,

 

or type numbers in both the date and time fields.

 

This feature does not work if you turn off your computer using a power strip

 

or surge protector.

 

 

Low Power Mode

When Low Power Mode is selected, remote wakeup events no longer power

 

up from Hibernate or Off.

 

 

Remote Wake Up

This option allows the computer to power up when a NIC or Remote

 

Wakeup-capable modem receives a wake up signal.

 

On is the default setting. On w/ Boot to NIC allows the computer to

 

attempt to boot from a network prior to using the boot sequence.

 

NOTE: Normally, the system can be powered up remotely from suspend mode,

 

hibernate mode, or when powered off. When Low Power Mode (in the Power

 

Management menu) is enabled, the computer can only be powered up

 

remotely from Suspend.

 

 

Suspend Mode

The options are S1, a suspend state where the computer is running in a low-

 

power mode, and S3, a standby state where the power is reduced or turned

 

off for most components, however, system memory remains active.

 

 

Maintenance

 

 

 

CMOS Defaults

This setting restores the computer’s factory-installed default settings.

 

 

Event Log

Displays the system event log.

 

 

BIOS Update

After downloading a new version of the BIOS, use this option to identify

 

and define the location of the BIOS update file. The options are Diskette or

 

Disk.

 

 

POST Behavior

 

 

 

Fastboot

When set to On (default), your computer starts more quickly because it

 

skips certain configurations and tests.
