Windows 7 and USB hub

I believe Windows 7 is turning off power to my USB hub when it goes to sleep. I have both my keyboard and mouse in this hub, for wiring convenience. I will move one or both to direct connect, and see if that's it.

Anyone heard of this? Is there a setting I need to check?

Welcome to Windows Seven Forums.

Go into Device Manager and check the Power Management settings for your USB hubs.

Thanks for the fast reply. I will check that ASAP. Gotta say looks like a winner. I think I did good finding this place. More to come.

OK, keep us posted. Make sure you check all the USB hubs, not just the one I pointed to.

So far So good, problem was intermittent so will keep an eye on it.
Thanks again.

You're very welcome. I'm going to notify the mods this thread is solved so if you do experience further problems, just start a fresh thread.
