tween an operating system and the BIOS. In other words, it is a standard that
describes how computer components work together to manage system
hardware. In order to use this function the ACPI specification must be sup-
ported by the OS (for example, Windows2000 or WindowsXP). The available
setting values are: Enabled and Disabled.

supply status will remain as it is, in S1 mode the computer can beresumed

a delay period. The status of the computer before it enters STR will be saved

STR function wakes. When you select “S1 & S3” mode, the system will
automatically select the delay time.
