Abstract: Disclosed is a method for controlling a computing apparatus including a cover having a display on one surface facing into a keyboard when the cover is in a closed state. The method comprises, in response to receiving a command to turn on an automatic booting mode of the computing apparatus, storing a configuration value corresponding to an ON state of the automatic booting mode in a memory; when the cover is in the closed state, detecting an opening of the cover via a sensor of the computing apparatus; and, in response to detecting the opening of the cover when a system status of the computing apparatus is an S5 state defined by the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) standard, performing, via a controller of the computing apparatus, an operation of entering from the S5 state to an S0 state defined by the APCI standard based on the configuration value stored in the memory.

Abstract: A computing apparatus and a method for controlling the same are disclosed. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the method for controlling the computing apparatus includes the steps of receiving a user command configured to turn on an automatic booting mode through a user interface unit, delivering data corresponding to an ON state of the automatic booting mode to a BIOS module from an application module having an operating system stored therein, storing a configuration value corresponding to the ON state of the automatic booting mode in a Read-Only Memory (ROM) section of the BIOS module, when the cover is in a closed state, detecting an opening of the cover, and performing a predetermined operation in accordance with the configuration value being stored in the ROM section of the BIOS module, based upon a system status corresponding to when the cover is in a closed state.
