- there are 3 SB3s, all wired and sync'd. Two of them are permanently connected to power, the third has power disconnected shortly after the PC sleeps via a power saving socket. - the PC is usually put to sleep via the Windows Start Menu, and sometimes via a very simple little app called Wizmo.exe. I don't even know how to get the SB3 to put the PC to sleep. I am pretty sure that the behaviour in both cases is the same. - I usually wake the PC by pressing the Power button on one of the SB3s that is permanently connected to power, and this is how I have been testing it the last few days. - In Windows I had to set "Only allow a magic packet to wake the computer" to stop it being woken all the time. - Powercfg -a shows available sleep states as S3 / Hibernate / Hybrid Sleep / Fast Startup. - - it certainly doesn't go into Hibernate since that requires entry of the Bitlocker password - - _However_I_tried_it_with_Hibernate_twice_(waking_via_SB3)_and_BBC_starts_normally_as_hoped!!!!_ - - fast start-up is disabled in Power Options - - hybrid sleep is effectively disabled since the "Hibernate after" setting is set to never. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rbl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4517 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110469 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
