Really power off when turned off

gjwebber · 26 Nov 2009 at 09:20

Hi,

I have this motherboard. When the PC is turned off the USB ports at the back still supply power (mouse is lit up bright blue), and the lights on the PS/2 keyboard are still on.

Is it possible to turn them off in the BIOS or something?

Thanks,
Gareth

Yeah its a BIOS thing, you should be able to turn it off.

I have found the same with their Intel board. Interesting it uses 5 watts switched off and exactly the same in sleep mode. I now use the power socket to turn it off over night
