Power management tab missing

I'm running Windows MCE 2005. Motherboard is an ASRock K8NF4-SATA2 (TForce). GPU is a GF6200TC (PCIe). Also have a Hauppauge PVR-150MCE installed. Using microsoft versions of the MCE remote, and MCE remote keyboard.

The IR receiver works well when the machine is on. I've set it so that hitting the power button puts the computer in hibernate. The problem is getting it to resume from hibernate via remote. It's supposed to be possible if I go to Device Management>Human Interface Devices>Microsoft eHome IR Receiver>Power management. The problem is, the "power management" tab is missing from that window. All other devices under Human interface devices have power management options, and I set them to resume the computer from hibernate. The receiver, though, won't do it for some reason.

Does anyone have any idea?
 
Check mobo manual for reference to "wake on usb" feature. This needs to enabled in the BIOS somewhere. Usually there is also a jumper that must be set for the usb port the receiver is hooked to.

This allows the USB port to stay on a little to listen for signals from the remote. I would reccomend to change the jumpers only for the port the receiver is hooked to so that the +5sb rail of the PSU is not taxed too much.
