| | OK thanks, I have switched off both in battery and plugged in. If this works(!) what will it prove exactly - so I can report back to Dell? Of course, I won't know for a while because the crashes are so random. Thanks again |

| | Hello Brogues, The green information box at the top of the tutorial can give you more information about what the USB selective suspend feature is and does. This tutorial just allows you to turn it on or off at will. If turned off, the Windows will not be able to only suspend individual idle USB devices. Hope this helps some,  Shawn |

| | I am only new to wishing to adjusting power plans - it is on default - if you wish to disable the External Hard Drive do you follow the instructions above to put it to sleep with the rest of the computer. Or is it best to post in the forum |

| | Hello Melissa, This setting is not related to the sleep computer setting. Think of this setting like the turn off idle hard drives setting. The USB selective suspend feature allows the hub driver to suspend an individual USB port without affecting the operation of the other USB ports on the hub. If set to be disabled, then all USB ports would be suspended instead of only idle ones. If you like, the link below has more in-depth information about it. USB Selective Suspend (Windows Drivers) Hope this helps, Shawn |
