    Wake on keyboard and mouse not staying disabled, why?


    In device manager I changed the settings for wake on keyboard and mouse (diasabled them). Occasionally I can still wake with KB/M and then I look and see the box has become unchecked. Any ideas why? Doesn't happen often but it is annoying when it does.

    Maybe you can get some ideas from this excellent tutorial.

    Works with both Vista and Windows 7

    I helped somneone a few weeks ago with same mouse issue.

    Did you do this in the Control Panel or also in Device Manager ?

    Check the later.

    It rarely happens anyways, probably when something updates and resets some settings, I am not too worried about it now.

    Did you take a look at BIOS settings?!...

    I have a setting in the keyboard section that allows it to wake up on a key press.

    Your problem happens to me when I disconnect my keyboard. If I unplug it, I have to change the setting back again.
