Any way to stop power going to USB ports when PC turned off?
Motherboard is MA78GM-S2H. I have turned off the BIOS option to support USB
drives when booting. When the PC is turned off or put in standby the USB ports keep getting power. I have an external HDD and because the power stays on, it does not go into standby, which in turn means I cannot turn it off using its remote control. In other words, I have to get out of bed to turn it off! On my previous motherboard, when you turned off the PC, power to the USB ports was cut. Any way I can get this board behaving the same way? |

Under Power Management Setup, try disabling USB Wakeup from S3. |

Under Power Management Setup, try disabling USB Wakeup from S3. Yep, tried that already, thank you. My last mobo did not support S3 stanby, only S1. Maybe if I set the Gigabyte to S1 in the bios all power will be cut...but I do like S3 standby! Will give it a try though... |
