ACPI Function
This BIOS feature is used to enable or disable the
motherboard's APIC (Advanced Configuration and
Power Interface). The ACPI provides multiprocessor
support, more IRQs and faster interrupt handling.
However, it is only supported by newer operating
systems like Microsoft Windows NT, Windows 2000
and Windows XP. Older operating systems like DOS or
Windows 95/98 do not support this feature.
It is recommended that you enable this feature if you
are using a newer operating system like Windows XP.
Disable it only if you are using an older operating
system like DOS or Windows 95/98.

ACPI Suspend Type
This item specifies the power saving modes for ACPI
function. S1(POS): The S1 sleep mode is a low power
state. In this state, no system context (CPU or chipset)
is lost and hardware maintains all system context. S3
(STR): The S3 sleep mode is s power-down state in
which power is supplied only to essential components
such as main memory and wake-capable devices and
all system context is saved to main memory. The
information stored in memory will be used to restore
the PC to the previous state when an wake-up event
occurs.
S1 (POS) : Set ACPI suspend
type to S1/POS(Power On
Suspend).
