Computer system and operation method applicable thereto

Abstract

An operation method for a computer system includes: a capacitance button controller detecting whether a capacitance button group is touched; if a capacitance power button of the capacitance button group is touched, a system platform receiving a power button signal in a first logic state and changing an operation state of the system platform; if the capacitance power button is touched for longer than a predetermined time, shutting down the system platform; if the capacitance power button is touched for not longer than the predetermined time, the system platform receiving the power button signal in a second logic state and determining a subsequent operation status of the system platform and the capacitance button controller based on a system status signal; and if the capacitance button group is touched but the capacitance power button is not touched, the capacitance button controller entering into a power-saving state.
