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"?

    Hi!!

    In the certificate of warranty, it says: "PRODISMA Monitors and LCD Monitors" .

    I bought it at a store in a promotion that was in the Basque Country with an opening computer centers-the "Kz-gunea".

    "Kz-gunea" means **"**Connect" in Basque language.

    Well, could I disconnect the keyboard (when turned off the computer) and then use "Add New Hardware" from **"**ControlPanel"? The installation of the keyboard does not appear separately in any CD of the PC .

    Well, before I do that, I want to tell you:

    I have looked for again, and the booklet says:

    USER'S GUIDE

    COLOR MONITOR

    Model No: PRT-541502

    Below, PRODISMA (and Energy Star, to its right) .

    Yes, I read that, and that is what I searched for, but could not find that make and model.

    go to start, control panel, Mouse, look through here for properties of mouse.

    while in the control panel, look under Power options for wake on lan

    go to start, right click on My Computer, select manage, select device manager, go to network adaptor, right click and choose properties, look for any power management tabs and advanced tabs for anything that will tell you to either use the Wake on lan capability or to disable.

    go to start, help and support, type wake on lan into the search bar.

    Hi!!

    In "System summary" or elsewhere, I have read:

    "Mouse is not (or has no option) "to save power" " .
