System Setup Program A-5
Power Management With the Power Management category
enabled, DPMS monitors and most EIDE
drives automatically switch into low-power
mode during periods of system inactivity.
CAUTION: Before enabling this feature,
check the monitor documentation to make
sure the system has a DPMS-compliant
monitor. Otherwise, there is a risk of dam-
aging the monitor.
NOTE: Not all EIDE hard-disk drives support
this feature. Enabling this feature for drives
that do not support it may cause the EIDE
drive to become inoperable until the system is
restarted and the Power Management category
is disabled.
