| Hi,

| There are some settings for the APM configuration that confuse me.
| When i move to the "Energy Star 4.0C Support", there is a pop-up message to the

| S3 Resume: PS2&USB sleep/wakeup function will not be supported
| S4/S5 Resume: Marvell LAN, PS2&USB Devices sleep/wakeup function will not be
| supported
|
| The problem is that I cannot find these (S3, S4, S5) settings anywhere so I

|
| Are there hidden settings here?

Check your manual. Look on Page 3-31. Item 3.6.1 shows settings for [S1 (POS)
only] [S3 only] and [Auto]. From there to the upper part of Page 3-33 gives you
info on wakeup setup, etc., for you BIOS.
