Difference Between Wake Up On LAN And On Board Wake Up On LAN?
May 1, 2011
Logmein software is able to wake the computer up with On Board Wake up is disabled or enabled in BIOS.I have also Toshiba L505D.Logmein software can wake the computer up only if Wake up on LAN is enabled in BIOS.What is the difference between ASUS BIOS's On Board Wake up option and Toshiba BIOS's Wake up on LAN option? UPDATE: I found out that ASUS's Option was for diskless boot and using network hard disks as hard disks. Nothing to do with Wake up on LAN.
I just installed Windows 7 (64 bit) on a fresh system last night. Installation was fine, did a little web browsing, then put the machine to sleep. This morning, I go to the computer, click the mouse, and...nothing. Press a bunch of keys, nothingCutting power to the machine causes it to power up, power down, then power back up.And I have no idea what's going on.
I've spent countless hours looking for solutions on google and i can't fix it.My HTPC can go in S3 standby mode successfully. BUT the only way to wake my computer is to press the power button. When i wake it up, it starts where it was before so S3 mode is working. Problem is just waking it up.The weirdest thing is that it USED to work. Around 2 months ago i was waking up my computer with my keyboard and it worked. But i stopped to use this feature, and now that i need it, it isn't working anymore.
Oh, also wake-on-LAN isn't working neither. And it also used to be working 2 months ago. I really don't know what happenned.Here's a couple of screenshots. Sorry my windows is in french, but i'll translate the text for you:
All my other versions of Windows, after the screen saver the PC goes blank, moving the mouse and it sprang back into life, why is it Win 7 requires a reboot.?

Picture from my BIOS
Device manager -> Keyboard -> Power management >>> Option "Allow this device to wake computer from standby mode" is checked >>> Option "allow computer to turn off this device to save energy" is unchecked and greyed out Device manager -> Network cards -> Realtek PCIe -> Advanced >>> Wake on pattern match : ACTIVATED >>> Wake on Magic Packet : ACTIVATED
Can't see it on screenshot but the option "Stop wake on LAN" is DISABLED (i also tryed to turn it on but it doesn't change anything)
"powercfg -devicequery wake_armed" tells me that my keyboard is allowed to wake my computer "powercfg -a" tells me that S3 mode is supported, but S1 and S2 is disabled (that's normal)
Power configuration :
S1 after : Never Allow hybrid mode : Yes S3 mode after : 60 minutes Allow wake timers : No Selective USB suspension : Off
My hardware:

Solutions tryed, unsuccessfully:
- resetting BIOS/CMOS - updating BIOS and all other drivers to latest versions - disabling all other USB devices - tryed every single USB slots, with and without USB hubs, usb2 instead of usb3 and vice-versa... - tryed with two different power supplies - tryed different keyboards - tryed mouse instead of keyboard, LAN instead of USB...
Wake-on-lan stops working after being in sleep mode or off for an extended time (hours?). Bios is set correctly at S3, router port 9 correctly forwarded, W7 security is set correctly, and the NIC properties are set to allow magic packets to wake the machine. Everything works perfectly all the time over my LAN no matter how long the PC is off. When I send WOL remotely over the Internet it works fine in sleep mode or turned off for a while then fails. I have noticed after waking from sleep that the internet connection icon in the W7 tray indicates a loss of Internet but automatically reacquires after a few seconds. I think this is the root of mine and many other's problem. Something is shutting off the Internet connection. Because the system will wake over the LAN when this happens it proves that the bios, router, ans NIC are alive and passing the packets. My router and LAN IP addresses have not changed either. why the system would stop communication with the internet?

i chose "do nothing" when closing the laptop lid. However when i close the lid and it eventually goes to sleep after a while, i cant wake it by just opening the lid. Is there a way to wake the computer by just opening the lid
Title says it all. There are some things you can do from a distance using other pc's, a phone, etc, but I hate leaving my computer on. Anybody have any creative ways to be able to wake a computer up from a distance? Hibernate preferable but I understand it may be unreasonably difficult, perhaps sleep would be better? Still, sleep doesn't give the energy saving advantages as hibernation.
It's my first time posting! I've been browsing this forum and many sites on google trying to find the solution to my problem, but I can't really understand what is going on, even when taking a look at the dump file. I ran memtest, did all the usual things, but no sign of source of error to pin point. Every single time I put my laptop to sleep and keep it like that for longer amount of time (I think it's about 20 minutes) I can't get my laptop back from sleep in a normal fashion. What I mean is, that the screen never turns back off, stays completely black, my external monitor doesn't turn on either, just goes to idle mode. After reboot I get a message that there was a blue screen error and I can try to look for solution online. I read that my SSD HDD might be the cause of it, but after updating the firmware the problem persisted and after looking at my memory dumps, I found out that DirectX kernel is causing the problems, but updating it didn't yield any results, the problem persists, so perhaps I am missing something in the dumps that aren't that obvious to spot.My RAM aren't stock that came with computer, both chips 4GB each are aftermarket ones, but I have no issues with anything when using the computer except when it is waking up and MEMTEST didn't throw me any errors after an overnight pass.
mouse activity persistently wakes up windows 7 pc, even with "Allow this device to wake the computer" unchecked on "HID-compliant mouse"Attempted methods for resolution:-Unchecked "Allow this device to wake the computer" on "HID-compliant mouse"-checked powercfg -devicequery wake_armed, mouse was not listed-checked last wake device after mouse wake: It shows: "USB Root Hub" -all "USB Root Hub" has "Allow this device to wake the computer" check box greyed out-checked BIOS settings: wake on PS/2 Mouse / Keyboard is disabledotes:Previously, with Vista OS installed on this computer and "Allow this device to wake the computer" unchecked on "HID-compliant mouse", the mouse did not wake the PC, performing as expected.Before the upgrade to Windows 7, a BIOS update was performed and then Windows 7 was installed.
I want to say 2 days ago, my computer has decided to fail when going to sleep. It is Windows 7, completely updated with no problems to that point. When it falls asleep and I wake it up, the machine starts up and is active, but my monitors and external hard drive are never turned on as they once were and the machine just sits there running with a black screen. I restart, boot back into Windows and it says resume (as if it was in hibernation, but I have hybrid sleep on) and I just get a flashing underscore and no more. I restart once again, it says Windows could not restore the session, I start a new session and all is good again... until the computer falls asleep and the process starts over.
I have tried turning off hybrid sleep. No good. I have tried using hibernation instead of sleep. Same error. I found online where someone said they had this problem with an ATI card, but once the upgraded the Catalyst Control Center and drivers, they had no problems. That did no good. The only update I've done recenly is Firefox, but I have not seen any other reports of the newest Firefox causing sleep problems. I read where someone had a problem with waking up from sleep mode because of Firefox's memory leaks and they said closing Firefox before putting it to sleep helped.It does not matter if I put it to sleep and wake it up immediately or if it goes to sleep and when I get home from work, boot it up. The same thing happens no matter the length of time.I have a dual boot with Ubuntu, but that has been on there for months with no errors and Ubuntu will sleep and wake up just fine. There have been no hardware changes or any hardware driver changes other than the video card. I tried rolling back video card drivers to see if there was a difference with no change. My ASRock MB has the most up to date BIOS that has been out for over a year. My video card is a 5770, but like I said, I've tried older and new drivers. I tried the prevx black screen fix with no luck.
The new SSD is my boot drive with a legit Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. I have the repair discs also if necessary.Problem = Many, but not all, of my wakes from sleep result in a blue screen of death. (I have no other BSODs)Also, this never happened using my old HDD.Two recent BSODs with different error codes = [URL]I have installed the MOBO CD drivers and the latest NVIDIA GPU drivers and latest SSD firmware (before OS install).Are there any other drivers I might have missed?SFC /SCANNOW detects no integrity violations.CHKDSK on both the SSD and HDD detects no problems.Windows Memory Diagnostic detects no problems.
Just built my new computer, and everything, including sleep, worked perfectly. I then installed GRA4 off Steam, and now when the computer wakes up it does NOT blue screen-rather the monitor inverts color, pixelates heavily, and then freezes. I cannot, or the life of me,
My problem usually comes when I put my computer to sleep, and then wake it up. Instead of just jumping right to the desktop screen, it now goes back to the motherboard screen and does a resuming windows operation that takes 5x as long as it used to.
Sometimes this problem causes the computer to simply restart and get a BSOD, when I am in the process of resuming windows.
EDIT: I believe I have actually gotten 2 separate BlueScreen reports during this... d1 1033, and 1e 1033.

I installed 7RC a couple of months ago. Since then whenever my pc sleeps I can not wake it up. It used to wake up fine in XP. To get it going again I have to cold reboot or pull the plug. When it comes back up everything I was doing is still there, I just have to enter my password. I think I have all the settings right but if someone could run me through everything that needs to be set I'd be really grateful.
I am not savvy in this kind of stuff. My husband has a home built computer that runs our tv system with windows media center. He had to leave on a military deployment and right before he left he had to reinstall the OS. Since then the computer refuses to wake from sleep mode. I have to scram it to get it to come back up. Since we run the media center it ought to wake up to record automatically, but it isn't doing that either. I've checked all the power options but that doesn't seem to be the problem. Although, at this point, I really have no clue.

How can you schedule your Windows 7 to wake up or turn on on a specific time.eg. my IDM starts work at 1am. i sleep before 12. I dont want to waste energy to keep my computer fully on this whole hour (electricity is expensive here).I've tried to schedule it, but it keeps failing. I dont know why.
Hi new user here, my RTM copy used to go to standby and wake up fine but recently when I try to power it up the machine will appear to start up, but my screen, keyboard and mouse do not wake up, also my wifi light does not turn on either.
The only way to get on to my pc is to do a hard restart.
I believe this might help: Power Efficiency Diagnostics Report

The report points to my wifi card being the source of the problem yet I have tried disabling it and the same occurs.
I know there has to be a simple fix to this but I'm banging my head against the wall right now trying to figure this out. Everytime my PC goes to sleep I'll press a button on my keyboard or move my mouse and it will wake up just fine, but the monitor won't wake up. I've also noticed that the backlight on my keyboard doesn't show up. I've tried different monitors and removed the VGA cable from the graphics card after waking up and plugged it back in and no video. I have to reboot the computer to get video again and everything works great.. until it goes into sleep mode again. I have updated my graphics card driver (Geforce GT 210) and still no fix. I haven't made any changes that would cause this. Someone has to know something about this
Usually, the power management sleep mode shuts down the system, including the power switch indicator, which must be depressed to wake the machine back up and resume Windows. So long as the power indicator remains lit, it takes only a touch of the pad to start up again.
Lately, however, the system goes to sleep (as do I), but the power indicator stays lit. When I return, the system is completely unresponsive. I have to hold the power switch, shut down abnormally, then reboot the system from scratch.
Recently, my computer will not wake up from sleep mode. Once it enters sleep mode, the only way to get it functioning again is to hold the power button, completely shut it off, and then boot my system back up. It appears as if everything starts back up once I open the lid or press the power button to wake it up, but the screen never turns back on. The fan starts up, the backlit keyboard lights up, the leds all blink, but nothing I try will turn the screen back on forcing me to press and hold the power button for a complete shut down.I have reinstalled the latest Intel HD Graphics driver as well as the latest NVIDIA graphics driver (both the stable and beta release).I do not get a blue screen or any sort of error. Upon the restart, I am not prompted with any error from windows or any signs of the forced shut down.
I have installed a clean copy of Windows 7 RC1 Build 7100 on my laptop. Whether I am connected to the network using a lan or wireless connection after waking my computer up from sleep I can't get any connection to work.
The wireless shows a limited connection and the wired shows a cable connected by no network connection.
As soon as I restart or shut down/reboot both or either connection restarts automatically and the Internet works.
This is really inconvenient when using a laptop on the move. Any one got any ideas?
My pc can wake up from sleep if it is shut down, but if it's on sleep or hibernated, i can not wake it up. I've already turned on everything in Bios and Windows. There no option like WakeOnLAN from Sleep, just WakeOnLan from PowerOff in network adapter's Advanced tab properties. I've also updated network car driver. Maybe I should try with other network card?
I'm currently trying to make my computer Wake on LAN with Deep Freeze. I've followed this guide to it: Windows 7 Issues: Wake-on-Lan (WOL) for Windows 7 Made Easy! The message is getting sent from the Deep Freeze console computer, but the laptop doesn't start up from the command sent. The laptop is a ASUS k53s with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I've went over all the settings I've made, I can lock it, freeze it, restart it, shut it down etc. But I can't wake it with LAN command.
I am trying to set up my media server PC to be completely controlled from my Android phone. However, I am unable to get WoL working. I have enabled WoL from BIOS and the network device settings, but am still unable to wake the computer from sleep with a magic packet. I can wake the computer from sleep with other devices (ie: my USB keyboard).
I have the latest update for my BIOS, as well as the latest drivers for the onboard Ethernet adapter. I have enabled the option to allow PCIe devices to wake the computer, and have enabled the options on my onboard Ethernet adapter to "Wake on Magic Packet." Under Power Management, have "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power," "Allow this device to wake the computer," and "Only allow a magic packet to wake the computer" checked. I have also tried unchecking "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power," which also greys out the other two options, and that does not work either.
"wolsniffer" shows that the magic packet is being received when the computer is powered on, and I have tried enabling and disabling "Hybrid Sleep" mode because I have seen that suggested as a possible issue for Windows 7 WoL.
