POWER MANAGEMENT INITIALIZATION FOR A COMPUTER OPERABLE UNDER A PLURALITY OF OPERATING SYSTEMS

摘要

Power management interrupt enabling is done after completion of POST by loading either DOS or OS/2 operating systems in accordance with whichever operating system the computer is setup to operate under. After being loaded, the operating system then enables the PMIs. This provides a very simple solution that allows the PMIs to be used in a computer operable under a plurality of operating systems.
