USB gurus? Turn on computer with USB input.
I have a touchscreen monitor whose touchscreen features connect via USB.
When I first purchased it, it would automatically turn the computer on when I'd turn the touchscreen monitor on. I've since formatted the hard drive and screwed with the BIOS and now I can't get the turn-on feature to work. I'd like to know how I can get it to work again. My questions a - Is this feature dealt with strictly in the BIOS? That is, could it be a driver or Windows problem? - What do I modify in the BIOS to get this feature to work again? I assume it's a power management thing. Any help is greatly appreciated. This problem is driving me nuts. -- Mark remove "remove" and "spam" to reply |

There should be an option to turn-on the computer by USB Mouse/keyboard
input. Since it is a touchscreen, I'm guessing that is how it turned it on before. -Eric "MZ" wrote in message ... I have a touchscreen monitor whose touchscreen features connect via USB.

The computer is not turned on - therefore no software is loaded - therefore it is not windows drivers. Check the BIOS - What do I modify in the BIOS to get this feature to work again? I assume it's a power management thing. There should be a setting to power on when mouse is clicked in the bios. -- -Luke- If cars had advanced at the same rate as Micr0$oft technology, they'd be flying by now.
