Vista weird problem

[icecoldstar]

When my Vista ultimate SP1 wakes up from sleep, It takes a while to recognize my USB mouse/keyboard.....

This is just freaking weird... If i use wired mouse with the follwing port (i dunno the name of this port)

it recognizes it instantly when wake up from sleep.

anyone else with this problem? how can I solve this irritating problem?

Unfortunately most of this delay is caused by your hardware / driver / BIOS, not Windows.

When connected via USB, do your keyboard/mouse work to wake the machine from sleep? Also, are they connected via a hub or directly into the machine?

[icecoldstar]

Yes, I use the keyboard/mouse to wake the machine up.

The key/mouse are wireless and they share a common receiver, which is plugged directly into the USB.

So, which hardware/driver/BIOS is causing the delay??? and how do i fix it?

If memory serves me right there may be an option in the BIOS to allow USB Devices to Wake The System from S3. (There are in some BIOS that is.)

You may wish to check that out!

this is wierd. i had the same problem a while ago with my mouse and it started randomly, not after any driver updates or hardware changes. i just ignored it and got used to hitting the space bar instead. later i reinstalled the os for another reason and didnt have the problem anymore. maybe a reinstall of mouse/keyboard driver will help? i wouldnt reinstall the os just to fix this but idk up to u

You hit the nail on the head, Cara!

Go into the Chipset portion of your system's BIOS and you'll see something along the lines of "USB Keyboard Support" and "USB Mouse Support" - check those settings, as well as the "Wake On..." ones. USB Mice and/or Keyboards may not be immediately powered-up and may take a moment or three. I believe that the USB Keyboard Support and USB Mouse Support sets the Chipset to provide continuous +5VSB to both / either of them so that you have the ability to wake your system up with the keyboard or the mouse.

If you do set these to "YES" and still have trouble, you might want to look into getting your motherboard's latest BIOS & Chipset drivers.

Hope this helps!

do you have the devices set to turn off to save power?if so turn that off as it will prevent the devices from going to sleep.

I have Acer M1610... and I think I might need new BIOS, but i do not know where i can find them.. I tried acer's website, but they don't have BIOS download nor chipset drivers. can anyone help me get a link?

You could DL CPU-Z, which will tell you the motherboard make/model and go directly to the MB manufacturer's site and get updated BIOS :)

These green and purple ports are called PS/2.

I downloaded cpu-Z and the fowlling is my mobo

@franzon: I tried that link. Acer europe is different from acer pamamerican (I live in Florida) and it doesn't have R01-A3 BIOS

and people help further???

BTW. I bought the computer with vista home premium. Right after I bought it, I installed vista ultimate using a friend's CD... maybe that has something to do with BIOS???

you can access the download page for it via here

if you do have a m1610 then you have the wrong bios installed

what OS you have isn't related to your bios. completely seperate
