| 697235 | 2008-08-14 09:09:00 | I've recently built a new system with these specs: AMD Athlon X2 5000+ AM2 Gigabyte MA78GM-S2H 4GB GSKill DDR2-800 Nvidia 8600GT XP Pro x64 Heres the problem: I don't seem to be able to get the system to shutdown fully . When it powers down it is still supplying power to USB and PS2 devices . I have gone though the BIOS power management section and I believe set things correctly and even incorrectly . Heres the settings: ACPI Susped Type: S3 Soft-Off by Power button: Instant off USB wake up from S3: Disabled Modem Ring Resume: Disabled PME Event Wake Up: Disabled HPEY Support: Disabled Power on by mouse: Disabled Power on by keyboard: Disabled AC Back function: Soft-Off Power-On by Alarm: Disabled If anybodies got any idea on how I can set this so I can get some sleep at night it would be much appreciated . Thanks |

| 697236 | 2008-08-14 09:12:00 | Turn it off at the wall then on again?? Mine supplies power to USB when powered off (not sure about PS2) - and I'm not sure how to disable it. But I switch mine off at the wall each night anyway, so it's not really an issue for me. |

| 697238 | 2008-08-14 09:52:00 | USB is usually on (like a mouse), when you shut a system down You may have to change a jumper somewhere on the mobo, to disable it |

| 697239 | 2008-08-14 12:23:00 | The PSU supplies power to the motherboard anyway so its no different. Turn it off at the wall or switch it off on the PSU. | trinsic (6945) | ||
| 697240 | 2008-08-14 19:54:00 | The previous couple of builds I've done there was an option in the bios to disable sending power to usb after shutdown. I can understand the USB power but does PS2 normally still recieve power also? | stormdragon (6013) | ||
| 697241 | 2008-08-14 20:53:00 | There are probably jumpers for both of them on the mobo . That you'll have to switch to disable them Look in the manual |

| 697242 | 2008-08-14 21:17:00 | It will only be a 5v power on the USB anyway....I wouldnt worry...... | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 697243 | 2008-08-14 21:52:00 | Speedy according to the manual no jumper exists but will check the physical board later. Solmiester its not really power consumption that I care about its just i've modded this case/system with a whole lot of LED's etc running off USB power. |

| 697244 | 2008-08-15 02:09:00 | The only way to turn off USB standby power is with BIOS settings or Jumpers. If your board has neither of those then you just can't do it. Why not tap the 5v for your LEDs off the 5v rail for the drives? That way they will only be on when the PC is actually running |
