Windows 7 Can't Awake From Sleep With Usb Keyboard/Mouse

Aug 26, 2010

I have a laptop that is now running Win7 32 Home Premium(I upgraded from Win xp). I am using an external keyboard and mouse, as I am using it as a HTPC hooked up to a TV and want the laptop display closed and laptop tucked away. I have all the power options in Win7 set to put it to sleep, but there is no option I can find to have it wake up from sleep other than the power button on the laptop which is not accessible if lid is closed.

Some have said you need to go to the mouse/keyboard driver itself(HID Device) in device manager, and there should be a power management tab on the driver/device options, but my usb options do not have this tab. I also went to the Bios to configure power options and there are not options to configure power states(such as S3 S5 etc). I can get the laptop to go to sleep with the sleep button on a usb keyboard, but once it is asleep, it will not wake up from any command from the mouse/keyboard. I believe its because the USB ports are not being powered while in sleep mode, so it will not see a wake command - As I said before my USB port options do not have any power management settings. I also plugged in an MCE remote which has a sleep button, and same thing- it puts it to sleep, but will not wake it up. My goal is to just use an MCE remote for all commands -as I am running Windows Media Center.

Make Laptop Wake Up With Wireless Keyboard?

Aug 5, 2011

I have a Logitech DiNovo Edge Wireless Keyboard and a Logitech M510 Wireless Mouse.

I can't get my laptop to wake up by pressing keys on the keyboard or by clicking the mouse. The only way I can get it out of standby is to press a key on the actual laptop or click something with the laptop's built it touchpad.

I already tried looking in Device Manager but there is no Power Management tab for the keyboard or the mouse. There is only a Power Management tab on the laptop's built in keyboard and touchpad.

It's kind of annoying not being able to use the wireless devices to wake up the computer. I've read around that maybe it's because since the computer is on standby, the wireless keyboard and mouse's USB receiver aren't being powered by the laptop.

Allowing Program To Keep Pc Awake

Jan 2, 2012

i have a ftp server that goes to sleep after 2 minuets of inactivity, cool it will save me on my electricity bill, i send a magic packet to wake it when i need it, hears the issue, filezilla server will not keep it awake when somebody is logged into it, so when im out and about, i can wake it up, just into it with filezilla client but it then will sleep after two minuets because apparently it doesn't realize i am logged into it. how do i allow this program to keep the pc awake, i have a feeling that if there is a way then it will keep it awake forever considering the server end is always running when the PC is on, id like to set it to stay on if somebody is logged in.

Network Adapter Keeping Me Awake

Dec 28, 2012

What happens is when i put my computer to sleep it will wake up a few seconds later because of my network adapter which has a tick box that says allow this device to wake up the computer, now this isn't my problem because all i have to do is uncheck the box and it will sleep fine. My problem is every time i restart my PC the network adapter decides to revert the settings back forcing me to go and uncheck the power management box. most of the time i forget to do this after a restart or shutdown and i will end up putting the PC to sleep just as i go out or get into bed and it turns back on

A Compaq Presario CQ62 Laptop running windows 7. I accidentally spilled wine on it and the keyboard no longer worked.I purchased a Microsoft wired desktop 600, but it has no function keys. On the original keyboard I used Fn E12 to connect to a network, but with the new keyboard I can no longer connect to a network. There must be a workaround?

Wireless Keyboard Incompatibility

Dec 19, 2009

Admitted tech-tard here. I just got a new computer with windows 7 installed. Came with a wireless keyboard/mouse. I found that (only) in email my keyboard is not responsive. It is slow and types about every third letter. I got a new keyboard and it does the same. It is fine in word or searches--anywhere else. Anyone know if this is a windows 7 problem or is there is a fix? Also, it does it in all email-yahoo, gmail and outlook.

Keysonic Wireless Keyboard Issue

Nov 25, 2009

Recently upgraded from XP to 7 HE 64 bit, using a Keysonic ACK 540 RF wireless keyboard.

All was well until last weekend, when I was messing around with the AMD cool n quiet function.. When had issue and had to reboot a couple of times before pc would respond.

When it was back and running, had 2 issues;

black border around the screen image, quickly sorted by changing settings in ATI CCC.

Main issue was that the keyboard had stopped working. I changed the batteries first, still not working.

So, pull out dongle and re-insert... windows could not install driver files (or similar message)

Tried various usb ports, same result. Tried usb memory stick, works in all ports.

So, tried a roll back of Windows 7, now I get code 43, windows has stopped the device. Again, usb memory stick works in all ports.

So, am currently using extension leads for kb / mouse until I can get this sorted

Funnily enough though, when I plugged usb mouse in, the mouse does not work.

So, its not liking something to do with keyboard / mouse maybe?

Wireless Keyboard - USB Device Not Recognized?

Nov 8, 2011

i just bought a Trust Thinity wireless media keyboard. It comes with no disc or drivers and the usb receiver is just plug and play.When I plug it in it gives me the message "One of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned."If I keep unplugging and plugging back in it eventually picks up the drivers and installs, unitil I switch off my computer and then its back to square one.

All my motherboard drivers are up to date and bios is on latest version. Iv tryed uninstalling all my USB controllers and restarting. Iv even installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 64bit and 32bit to see if that made any difference but it hasnt.

The keyboard is brand new and I have tryed it on XP and it picked it up, installed the drivers and worked straight away.

Turning Off Wireless Keyboard And Mouse

Apr 28, 2012

I am thinking of getting a wireless keyboard and mouse, probably a Logitech, and wonder if, when I power off the computer, the mouse and keyboard will also turn off? It seems like a setting in Power Setting should offer the choice to do so.

Keyboard Just Stops Working (wireless Or Not)

Sep 17, 2012

For the past couple of days my keyboard starts to go crazy after about 2 hours worth of use. It will not let me type. And, if I hit a letter it will do something else that it shouldn't. For instance, if I hit the "letter" key it opens the file/save as.

I read a very old post here and tried to do what that said. I changed my batteries, cleaned the keyboard, and even used a different keyboard that isn't wireless. The very same thing happens no matter which keyboard I use.

Sometimes if I wait a few minutes and reboot it is fine again (like right now). This just started happening.

Apple Wireless Keyboard And Mouse Re-pair?

Aug 27, 2011

I have a custon ASUS m48A89GTD MOBO runnin windows 7, and a apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse with a cheap generic USB bluetooth dongle, which runs on a "broadcom 2.0 + USB dongle driver" .The keyboard and mouse pair with no problem, i can restart the pc and re-pair the devices perfectly.However, if i manually remove the dongle and reconnect it, all pairing info is lost and have to re-pair,

While the pc is shut down, the dongle remains lit with a "standby" power supply, If i remove the dongle and reconnect it, even if the pc is off, the problem repeats itself.same goes if i disconnect the pc from the wall outlet.Apparently the dongle has to remain "powered" for it to remember all the pairing and devices info.this is quite annoying, because i have to whip out my wired keyboard to re-pair every time this happens.

Wireless Computer Keyboard Display Different Character?

Aug 30, 2012

Some of the keys on my wireless keyboard produce something entirely different on the monitor. For instance, if I press Shift, and then 2 to get an @, I get a quotation mark on the monitor. Pressing the shift and quotation mark gives me an @. This thing is made in China. Is it wired wrong or do they not know English?

Keyboard Issue - Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 700 V2

Dec 23, 2009

I tried to type a pound symbol(£), so I pressed shift+3, and got a hash instead of £.

All letter keys work perfectly, as far as I can see, it is only the 2 and 3 keys which dont work.

2 gives me the @ symbol, whilst pressing the @ key gives me ".

3 gives me #, whilst pressing that key gives me , shift pressing the # key gives me |.

What has just happened?

The keyboard is part of a keyboard/mouse set, the Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 700 v2, and I am running Win 7 Home Premium x64.
