Abstract
A control apparatus includes a power supply unit, a power on unit, a control chip, a baseboard management controller (BMC) chip, and a south bridge. The power on unit sends a first power on signal to the control chip. The control chip receives the first power on signal and sends a triggering signal to the BMC chip. The south bridge is connected to the control chip and the BMC chip. The south bridge is driven to control the power supply unit to power on the computer by the control chip or the BMC chip according to states of the BMC chip after a predetermined time. If the BMC chip is in a start mode, the control chip drives the south bridge; if the BMC chip is in a working mode, the BMC chip receives the triggering signal and drives the south bridge.
