    Power Management Bluetooth Mouse


    Is there somewhere sneaky I can find power management settings for Bluetooth devices? Either through group policy or elsewhere?

    I am rolling with Windows 7 x64 full admin rights on an Acer ASPIRE 7750G.

    I have the most up-to-date drivers for my mouse (Logitech M555b): Bluetooth_Atheros_6.18.0624.0302_W7x64_A


    ... but I get no option to set power management settings.

    This is a real pain because one of the latest windows updates seems to make my bluetooth go to sleep and not wake up.

    Symptoms:
    * Mouse is working fine at startup
    * After not using the mouse for a few seconds, it will not work any more until I turn it off and on again

    Many "fixes" on the net point me to power management settings... except as seen from the pic... I am lacking said settings.

    I have removed my driver, disabled automatic driver detection, and re-installed... to no avail.

    EDIT: Tried the HID device, and noticed Power Settings, but the option I need is greyed out. Does that mean it is incompatible?

    Did you ever find a fix for this problem? I'm having the same issue. No 'Power Management' option on my bluetooth radio properties.

    I did a lot of things, but I think the eventual fix was letting windows update pick the driver + changing the mouse batteries. It might have been a cheap battery problem.

I have Windows 7 Home Premium x64 (Retail) installed on my desktop at home. So far I love it. I ran the RC prior to this and found it much, much better than I had expected. Anyway, for some reason my computer is not suspending itself any more. It worked fine for the first week, turning "off"...

What sorts of things can I do for power management, or is there any freeware/cheap software out there for this?? I cannot get my Sony Utilities installed, which means I no longer have Sony power management....:cry:
Power Management Utility?

Does anyone know of a quick way to change between power management schemes? For a desktop setup - I'm thinking of a utility that sits in the taskbar that allows you to quickly change schemes.
