    Make sure that the "Allow the computer to turn off this device … " option is enabled for each device.
    For most devices this checkbox is rendered inactive (gray) and unchecked. Is it normal?

    The only other aggravating issue is that McAfee won't work with Win 7 yet. I'm using a 14 Day trial of Norton for now, but I would really just like to use a free AV until McAfee delivers a working product. Does anyone have a suggestion? I've heard that Spyware Doctor or Avast might do the trick.
    The absolute best free anti-virus solution I've found is Avira Antivir. Here's the download page: Avira AntiVir Personal - Free Antivirus
