Guest colblip Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Hello, All! Anytime I put my machine on Standby it goes into Standby and then immediately comes out of Standby. Any thoughts as to why this would occur? Is there some setting I'm missing? Thanks, Colonel Blip E-mail: colonel.blip.at.bigfoot.com

Despite what people say about optical mice not needing to be cleaned, they do. If a hair gets caught in there, it will trigger movement detection by the sensor. If the lens gets dirty, it can cause trouble reading. What’s probably happening is that a hair or something is making the mouse think that it is being moved (the more precise the sensor, the better it can detect even a small hair moving), which is making your system come out of standby. Another possibility (if it still happens when the mouse is clean), is that the surface is problematic. When you put optical mice on certain surfaces, for some reason they detect movement when there is none. (For example, If I put my mouse directly on my keyboard tray, it will detect false movement, but not if I put it on the desktop, or mouse pad, or sheet of paper, or most other things—it’s weird.) -- Alec S. news/alec->synetech/cjb/net
