ABSTRACT:
A method to configure a device for remote management that is transparent to an advanced configuration and power interface (ACPI) operating system is described. The method includes configuring a device in a computer system when a transition between power states is being effected by the advanced configuration and power interface operating system including the step of causing the computer system to enter a non-ACPI mode in response to the transition being effected, configuring the device while in the non-ACPI mode, and completing the transition after the configuring of the device. The method may be stored in any media that is readable and executable by a computer system.
