Hey peeps

My W10 machines only come back from standby if you press the power button. I want them to wake on keyboard or mouse input. They used to under W7 but after the upgrade I can not seem to get it working again. I played with the power options but to no avail. Any ideas?

Thanks

That has traditionally been a BIOS option. If you happened to do a BIOS reset around the time you changes OS, you may want to go back in (even if you didn't) and make sure those options are still the same.

A similar option was available on ps2 connected keyboards . Bios on an Asus board would allow a power-on by keyboard. Sounds like the same type of option so , did you use Win 7 with a ps2 board ?
