I have updated my BIOS in my ASUS from:
http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us
and in this BIOS it says:
and I have been though the Media Centre config and said YES to enabling the AWAY MODE technology. Only problem now is...
How do I put Vista into AWAY MODE ??
With my MCE 2005 setup all I had to do is press the power button on the front and it would go into away mode (power lights would flash).
Anyone else got this board and have any ideas ?
EDIT: Just seen this download - Looks like I might need to download the ViiV 1.6 from Intels site:

Its interesting that this download is only for 32bit windows (good job I chose that version!)
UPDATE2:
Looks like the link above needs 1.5 installing before it can be installed but 1.5 doesnt install in vista. I managed to find a 1.6 standalone installer from gateway - see the 6th post from tzherukh in the following link:
