A status controller, a computer system, and a status detecting method thereof are disclosed. The status controller is used in the computer system. A main controller is used for indicating a shutdown status or an active status by a first level of an active-shutdown indicating interface pin. The status controller includes a hardware basic input output controller and an embedded controller. The hardware basic input output controller is used for indicating whether the computer system is in a sleep status by a second level of a system controlling interface pin, wherein when the computer system is in the sleep status, the hardware basic input output controller changes the second level. The embedded controller determines whether the computer system is in the shutdown or the active status by the first level and in the sleep status by the second level.

Status controller, computer system, and status detecting method thereof

A method of utilizing a mobile device to detect an emergency includes detecting whether the mobile device is carried by a user; detecting an acceleration status of the mobile device when the mobile device is determined to be carried by the user; and determining whether the user is in the emergency according to the acceleration status of the mobile device.

A virtual system management mode device, for processing a system management interrupt signal generated by a special process, includes a transformation unit, a control unit memory, and a control unit. The transformation unit transforms the system management interrupt signal into a virtual system management interrupt signal. The control unit memory stores a plurality of system management interrupt processes. The control unit executes one of the system management interrupt processes according to the virtual system management interrupt signal.

Virtual system management mode device and control method thereof

A debugging method for a computer system is disclosed, which includes defining a debug reference data area in a storage device for a BIOS and a control device, periodically transmitting a reply request including an identification information to the BIOS, transmitting reply information corresponding to the identification information according to the reply request, checking the reply information and storing an execution log data into the debug reference data area when the identification information does not conform to the original identification information, determining whether the computer system is in normal operation, and performing a debugging process according to the execution log data when the computer system is in abnormal operation.

Debugging method and computer system using the same

A method for simulating a mouse with a keyboard in a computer system includes detecting whether a key event occurs in a switch matrix of the keyboard of the computer system, determining whether the key event is related to a specific control key when the key event is detected, transforming a location of a switch in which the key event occurs into a pair of coordinates when the key event is not related to the specific control key and is a key-pressed event, calculating a pair of displacements between the latest two pairs of coordinates to obtain a movement data, and transmitting the movement data to a mouse driver of the computer system so that an operating system of the computer system is capable of receiving the movement data by the mouse driver, for controlling movement of a pointer shown on a screen of the computer system.

A method for automatically simulating manual testing of a computer after the computer is powered on includes the steps of: (a) connecting the computer to an external storage device having a script recorded thereon that corresponds to a manual testing operation; and (b) after the computer is powered on, enabling the computer to access the script of the external storage device for performing the manual testing operation. By providing automatic simulation of manual testing of a computer after the computer is powered on, time and labor costs incurred in a conventional method of manually inputting instructions required for the manual testing operation in the computer are saved.

Method for automatically simulating manual testing of a computer, and testing system for performing the method

A computer debug method includes following steps: a Power-On Self Test (POST) is started; several function tests of the POST are executed respectively, wherein at least one set of codes corresponding to each following executing function test is stored in a memory before executing each of the function tests; when the POST is interrupted, wait for a user to input a guess signal through an input device; compare the set of stored codes in the memory with the guess signal; a signal representing that the set of stored codes in the memory equals to the guess signal is output if the set of stored codes in the memory equals to the guess signal.
