    computer waking/screen showing


    when my display is off (screensaver on) or if my computer is in sleep mode, I hit a key on my keyboard and it comes to life. but when I use my mouse, it does not. I've tried several mice, but nothing.

    any setting for that?

    Hello Jim,

    You might double check using OPTION ONE in the tutorial below to see if the mouse has the Allow this device to wake the computer box checked in it's "Power Management" tab.

    Devices - Allow or Prevent to Wake Up Computer

    Hope this helps, :)
