Suspend to RAM Installation Suspend To RAM Installation A.1 Introduce STR function: Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is a Windows 98 ACPI sleep mode function. When recovering from STR (S3) sleep mode, the system is able, in just a few seconds, to retrieve the last “state” of the system before it went to sleep and recover to that state. The “state” is stored in memory (RAM) before the system goes to sleep.
Suspend to RAM Installation B. Choose the “Stand by” item and press “OK” 2. Define the system ”power on” button to initiate STR sleep mode: A. Double click “My Computer” and then “Control Panel” B. Double click the “ Power Management” item.
7ZX-1 Motherboard C. Select the “Advanced” tab and “Standby” mode in Power Buttons. D. Restart your computer to complete setup. Now when you want to enter STR sleep mode, just momentarily press the “Power on” button. A.4 How to recover from the STR sleep mode? There are five ways to “wake up” the system: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Press the “Power On” button. Use the “Resume by Alarm” function. Use the “Modem Ring On” function. Use the “Wake On LAN” function. Use the “USB Device Wake Up” function. A.5 Notices: 1.
7ZX-1 Motherboard Memory Installation The motherboard has 3 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM Slot .The DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the two notch. Memory size can vary between sockets.
7ZX-1 Motherboard BIOS Setup BIOS Setup is an overview of the BIOS Setup Program. The program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-backed CMOS RAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off. ENTERING SETUP Power ON the computer and press immediately will allow you to enter Setup.
BIOS Setup The Main Menu Once you enter AMI BIOS CMOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu (Figure 1) will appear on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from nine setup functions and two exit choices. Use arrow keys to select among the items and press to accept or enter the sub-menu.
