HP dc7800 unable to wake using USB mouse

[Guest fatal.lordes@gmail.com]

Hi

 

I have a very frustrating issue. I've got a HP dc7800 which I would

like to be able to wake from sleep using a USB mouse - It's just a

standard two button scroll mouse that came with the PC, nothing

fancy. It's running Win XP Pro. I've looked at both the mouse and

usb properties in control panel and device manager and nowhere is

there any option to tick to say "use this device to wake from sleep"

or similar. I've also looked in the BIOS and theres nothing there

either. Infact the only things mentioned in the BIOS under the Power

option (but I've looked in other areas, too) are:

 

Runtime Power Management - Enabled

Idle Power Savings - Extended

ACPI S3 HDD Reset - Disabled

ACPI S3 PS2 Mouse Wake Up - Enabled

USB Wake on Device Insertion - Enabled

Unique Sleep State Blink Rates - Disabled

 

If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. I can't believe it's

this hard!

 

Thanks

In Device Manager double click on the mouse. On the Mouse Properties, click

the Power Management tab. Click to check the box "Allow this device to bring

the computer out of standby".
