ASUS P4SP-MX SE motherboard user guide
2-23
IRQ XX Reserved [No/ICU]
These fields indicate whether or not the displayed IRQ for each field is being used
by a legacy (non-PnP) ISA card. The setting [No/ICU] for an IRQ field indicates that
you are using the ISA Configuration Utility (ICU), and that this particular IRQ is
NOT required by a legacy ISA card. Set the IRQ field to [Yes] if you install a legacy
ISA card that requires a unique IRQ and you are NOT using ICU.
Configuration options: [No/ICU] [Yes]
Power Management [User Defined]
This field allows you to activate or deactivate the automatic power saving features
of this motherboard. When set to [Disabled], power management does not function
regardless of the other settings on this menu. The [User Defined] option allows you
to set the period of inactivity before the system enters suspend mode. Refer to the
“Suspend Mode” item for details.
When set to [Max Saving], system power is conserved to its greatest amount. This
setting automatically puts the system into suspend mode after a brief period of
inactivity. [Min Saving] allows the system to enter suspend mode after a long
period of inactivity. Configuration options: [User Defined] [Disabled] [Min Saving]
[Max Saving]
Video Off Option [Suspend -> Off ]
This field determines when to activate the video off feature for monitor power
management. Configuration options: [Suspend -> Off] [Always On]
Video Off Method [DPMS OFF]
This field defines the video off features. The Display Power Management System
(DPMS) allows the BIOS to control the video display card if it supports DPMS. Set
this option to [Blank Screen] when using monitors that do not support power
management or “green” features.
2.5 Power menu
The Power menu allows you to reduce power consumption. This feature turns off
the video display and shuts down the hard disk after a period of inactivity.
