Core BIOS Features
3.1 Multi Boot

The notebook can support Multi-Boot for selecting the boot sequence of Hard Drive, Removable Devices, CD-ROM/DVD Drive and Network in Setup.
3.2 Boot Block

The Flash ROM used in many systems today offer the customer the advantage of electronically reprogramming the BIOS without physically replacing the BIOS ROM. This advantage, however, does create a possible hazard: power failures or fluctuations that occur during updating the Flash ROM can damage the BIOS code, making the system unbootable. To prevent this possible hazard, many Flash ROM include a special non-volatile region that can never be erased. This region, called the boot block, contains a fail-safe recovery routine. If the boot block finds corrupted BIOS, it prompts the end user to insert a diskette, from which it loads several files that replace the corrupted BIOS on the Flash ROM with an uncorrupted one.
4.
Thermal management
Please refer to Keyboard BIOS specification.
5.
Power Management for ACPI mode
5.1 Introduction
The notebook supports ACPI. The system will dynamically switch to ACPI mode for configuration and power management when an ACPI OS is loaded. When ACPI is not loaded and enabled, the power management function will be disabled.
5.2 System Time-outs

If the system is running in ACPI mode, system Time-outs is handled by the operating system. BIOS time-outs are disabled. System time-outs are set using the control panel power applet.
5.3 System Power Management

The overall system can be in one of the system power states as described below: ACPI mode Mech. Off (G3) Soft Off (G2/S5) Working (G0/S0) S3 Sleeping State Power Management All devices in the system are turned off completely. OS initiated shutdown. All devices in the system are turned off completely. Individual devices such as the CPU and hard disk may be power managed in this state. CPU set power down
2-4
S4 Sleeping State
VGA Suspend New Card Suspend Audio Suspend Hard Disk Power Down ODD Power Down Super I/O Power Down System Saves all system states and data onto disk prior to power off the whole system.
5.4 Device Power Management

Under ACPI mode, the device specific power management supported by this notebook includes the CPU throttling, monitor power management and the hard disk.
5.4.1 CPU power management

ACPI mode The operating system detects when the system is idle and places the CPU in one of the 3 CPU low power states (C1, C2 or C3) depending on how much latency it believes the system can afford. The C1 state is simply the CPU halt instruction. The C2 state is the CPU stop grant state. The C3 state is the CPU stops clock state. The CPU stays in this state until an interrupt occurs.
5.4.2 Hard Disk

The operating system uses the spin down timer of the hard drive to set time-outs. The BIOS time-out of the hard disk must be disabled in ACPI mode. The user can sets the hard disk spin down time-out in the control panel power applet.
5.4.3 Display Device

The monitor can be turned off after a period of no activity based on the settings of the OS.
5.4.4 System Wake Up Sources

The table below lists the wake up events for all low power states: Events Any key Power button LAN (On board) *3 RTC*3 Critical low battery S3 O O O O O S4 X O O O X S5 X O O X X Process required X X O O X
Field Process Required identifies that further process for the occurred events must be processed during wake up or resume procedure.
5.5 Hibernation
2-5
To support the hibernate state, the save to disk partition or file will be created by the operating system if the user select to enable the hibernation. It is the responsibility of the operating system to save the system state to a disk file and restore the system state when it is turned back on.
6.
ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface)
6.1 Introduction
The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is a well-specified power management and configuration mechanism. It evolves the existing collection of power management codes, APM, PnP BIOS, and Etc.
6.2 ACPI Sleep Status

BIOS must support the following sleep states S3, S4 and S5.
6.3 Fast Resume

BIOS must hands off the control to the operating system within the following time limits: S3->S0 Required 2sec
6.4 Power State Transition Diagram

The state transition diagram in ACPI mode is as follows: From (State) S3 Leave By Condition Power Button On board LAN Alarm Critical low battery(Only in DC mode) Power Button S4 On board LAN RTC S5 S0 Power Button Press Lid switch (depends on ACPI OS setting) Standby icon in shutdown menu in Windows.
