PCI and Windows Power Management



Hi,

I'm trying to implement a PCI device that has hooks for the PCI Bus Power
Management Specification proposed by Bruce Young of Intel. That is pretty
clear to me. The confusion comes in when management is also asking for
compatibility with the Windows operating system current Power Management.
I've looked at the APM BIOS Interface Specification v1.2 but it seems to me
that it does not cover Add-in devices. It refers to APM-aware device
drivers which can power manage Add-in devices directly.

The Question is:
Does anyone know what Hardware/Software PM specifications to follow in this
case?
Any light shed on this matter would be greatly appreciated!
