3Award BIOS Setup Utility

3.1.5.8 MODEM Use IRQ

This field is used to set an IRQ channel for the modem installed in your system.

3.1.5.9 Soft-Off by PWRBTN

This field allows you to select the method of powering off your system.

Delay 4 Sec Regardless of whether the Power Management field is enabled or disabled, if the power button is pushed and released in less than 4 sec, the system enters the Suspend mode. The purpose of this function is to prevent the system from powering off in case you accidentally “hit” or pushed the power button. Push and release again in less than 4 sec to restore. Pushing the power button for more than 4 seconds will power off the system.

Instant-Off Pressing and then releasing the power button at once will immediately power off your system.

3.1.5.10 Run VGABIOS if S3 Resume

When this field is set to Auto, the system will initialize the VGA BIOS when it wakes up from the S3 state.

3.1.5.11 PWR Lost Resume State

Keep Off When power returns after an AC power failure, the system’s power is off. You must press the Power button to power-on the system.

Turn On When power returns after an AC power failure, the system will automatically power-on.

Last State When power returns after an AC power failure, the system will return to the state where you left off before power failure occurs. If the system’s power is off when AC power failure occurs, it will remain off when power returns. If the system’s power is on when AC power failure occurs, the system will power- on when power returns.
