enable or unenable mouse to wake computer?
Hi,
For the record I am running Windows 7 Pro Sp1 with IE Explorer 11 while using a Microsoft Laser Mouse 5000.
I just noticed a few days ago that when I shut down the computer at night that the light on the front of my Wireless mouse receiver is still lit. I am positive that before this the light always went out when I turned off the computer.
After reading a few other posts concerning the same problem I discovered that I could go to Event Viewer > Mice and other Pointing Devices > Power Management and > 'unclick' the "Allow this device to wake the computer".
When I do this - - don't allow -- the light on my Mouse Receiver goes out.
Is there anything I might regret in the future by not allowing the Mouse to wake up my computer?
Thanks and regards,
