Mouse won't revive pc out of sleep ?

As above really guys . When I put my rig into sleep mode , I have to press the power button to revive . On every other rig I have owned simply moving the mouse will wake it up . Am I missing something in the settings /bios maybe ?

SPECS ...

MSI MPOWER Z77
i5 3570k
8gb crosair ram
CYBORG RAT 7

There is usually a 'wake up with USB peripherals' or something along those lines located somewhere in the BIOS.

I think you may be right Allthough I'm pretty sure not every PC I repair wakes up on mouse many are keyboard only. :/

There is an option in windows to "allow this device to wake the computer"
control panel - hardware - devices - mouse (right click) properties - hardware tab - then properties on one of the selections on the list.
