The settings are Disabled, Standby, or Suspend. The default settings are Disabled. Hard Disk Timeout (Min) This option specifies the length of a period of hard disk inactivity. When this period expires, the hard disk drive enters the power-conserving mode specified in the Hard Disk Power Down Mode option described on the previous page. The settings are Disabled, 1 Min (minutes), and all one minute intervals up to and including 15 Min. The default settings are Disabled. Standby Timeout Value This option specified the timeout value of the system is inactive (no SMI Event). If the system is inactive for that period, it will enter Standby power saving mode. Suspend Timeout Value This option specified the timeout value of the system is inactive (no SMI Event) while the system is in standby mode. If the system is inactive for that period, it will enter from Standby mode to suspend power saving mode. Slow Clock Ratio This option specifies the speed at which the system clock runs in power saving modes. The settings are expressed as a ratio between the normal clock speed and the power down clock speed. The settings are 1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16, 1:32, 1:64, or 1:128. The default setting is 1:1. Display Activity Select the power down mode for VESA video display in this option. The system will use this information to send different control signals to set the screen blank. There are three options: Suspend: Off: The System BIOS will only blank off the screen when disabling video for VGA monitor. In addition to VGA off, BIOS will also turn off the VSYNC & H-SYNC signals from VGA cards to monitor.

Note: Green monitors detect the V/H SYNC signals to turn off its electron gun.
