J. Chang the jumper settings of your Non-PnP card to avoid conflict with
other devices.
2. Add the configuration data of this card to ESCD ( Extend System

Green PC Feature
P4U880NIO Main Board features a most efficient power saving management
and supports all 486 CPUs for green feature (Non-SMI 486 IRQ green mode
and SMI-CPU in SMM mode). In Doze mode CPU clock will be slowed
down to 1/2 of normal speed for a SMI-CPU or be switched to 8MHz for a
normal CPU. In Standby mode CPU clock will be slowed down to 1/4 of
nonnal speed for a SMI-CPU or be kept in 8 MHz for a normal CPU and the
screen will be blank , hard disk will be powered down if set in BIOS. In
Suspend mode CPU will be stopped working for a Intel SL Enhanced or Cyrix
CPU while other CPUs will be worked in their slowest state in order to save
energy. In any of the 3 green mode you could wake up the system by pressing
any key or a pre-set wake up event.
