Viiv feature to turn on and turn off the computer instantly.

 ACPI Function

This item  is to activate the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Management

 ACPI Standby State

This  item specifies the  power saving  modes for ACPI  function.  If  your  operating
system supports ACPI, such  as W indows 2000/ XP ,  you can choose to enter the
Standby mode in S1(POS) or S3(STR) fashion through the setting of this field.  Set-
tings are:

[S1/POS]

The  S1  sleep  mode  is  a low  power  state. In  this  state, no
system context is lost (CPU or chipset) and hardware main-
tains all system context.

[S3/STR]

The  S3  sleep  mode  is  a  lower  power  state  where  the  in
formation of system configuration and open applications/files
is saved  to  main memory that  remains powered while  most
