1.The power supply in the computer continues to supply power to the CMOS memory, even when turned off.

When the PC is turned off with the power button on the front panel, the power consumption falls below 5 watts, but is not zero. The special on/off method used by this PC considerably extends the lifetime of the power supply. To reach zero power consumption in “off” mode, either unplug the PC from the power outlet or use a power block with a switch.
