Original Title: "Wake-up" key in "Acer" keyboard Model Nº: 6312-TA of Windows XP Desktop PC.

¡Hello!

I have a Desktop PC "Windows XP" Home Edition SP3.

The keyboard is "Acer" Model No.: 6312-TA . It is about 2001, the keyboard.

The matter is that in the keyboard, there is a "Wake-up key".  But I don't know how to use it. One of the boys in the shop, where I bought it, tried the keyboard I took out of the Desktop PC  and tried it recently in a computer of the shop.

He said, it did not go.

There are two other keys, next to the "Wake-up" key, one is for putting the PC in "suspension" mode (and it is simbolized by a big "Z**"** followed by two or three smaller ones), and the third last is for shutting down (simbolized by a plug-drawing crossed out).

These last two keys go well.

Where could I find information on how to use this "Wake-up" key??

Should I change something in "Energy options" in "Control Panel"?

    Yes, it is.

    Look at these 2 photos. They are from the front and the rear of the keyboard.

    Hi!!

    And the "Screen Saver" has also anything to do with "Energy Options"?

    How should one configure it?

    I think I have set none in the desktop PC , in recent times.

    Yes, it is an Acer.

    It may be around 2002, not 2001 .

    In your keyboard photos, the "Wake", "Suspend" and "Shut down" buttons are not the same ones as mines.

    In my keyboard, those buttons are symbolized by drawings, as I noted in my first opening theme message.

    In the photos that appear of "BenQ" keyboard in that web, in those keys the Words "Wake" , "Suspend" and "Shut Down" are printed on those keys.
