I really need some pointers for this problem, as something's going to go out the window soon...
Basically, I have a Vista Ultimate 32-bit install, which is going to be used as a dedicated media centre. Everything works ok, except for a problem with S3 sleep. Motherboard is an ASUS M2NPV-VM.
I have the standard MS eHome Infrared receiver plugged into rear USB port 1, and the mobo jumper for this port is set to +5VSB. All other USB ports are set at standard +5. With everything running and connected, if I put Vista into S3, it comes straight out again back to the desktop! If I unplug the IR receiver, it goes into S3 fine (and back out by using the power button). Trouble is, I need the receiver for the MS remote, and I cannot do without it.
Things I've tried so far;
All different USB ports (front and back) with various jumper settings.
Change back to an older BIOS (shipped with 1001, tried 0901)
Modifications to the Vista power plan.
Uninstalling the receiver in Device Manager, and letting Vista set it up again
Searching for updated drivers (none found!)
Various BIOS settings
Nothing has made any difference. Whenever the IR receiver is plugged in, Vista will come straight out of S3 back to the desktop.
I cannot for the life of me work out why it's doing it, and it's driving me crazy. This same receiver worked perfectly with XP MCE.
Can ANYONE help?
