3-5 Power Management Setup

This section provides information on the Green PC power management functions. By choosing the Power Management Setup option from the CMOS Setup Utility menu (Figure 3-1), the screen below displays the manufacturer's default values for the motherboard.

Figure 3-5 Power Management Setup

ACPI Suspend Type:

This feature allows user to select a suspend type for the operating system to turn off unused peripherals devices, such as CD-ROM players.

Power Management:

Power management saves electricity while the system is idle by entering power-saving modes.

Video Off Method:

This function serves as both screen and power saver for monitors. See the next function, Video Off After, for setting the video timer.

1.Blank - BIOS will switch the monitor screen to blank. The electricity saved in this mode is negligible and this function is only used as a screen saver to prevent screen damage while the screen is idle.

2.V/H SYNC+Blank - The system turns off the vertical and horizontal synchronization ports, writes blanks to the VGA buffer and the monitor's electron gun turns off. This function requires a monitor with Green features in order to take advantage of the power saving function. If you enable this function and do not have a Green monitor, the result will be the same as if you had
