  • You may be unable to wake the computer from sleep or standby mode by using your mouse or keyboard.

  • After you wake your computer from standby, your pointing device may not work.

  • When you press the SLEEP key on a keyboard that has a Sleep key or has a key that is configured to activate Sleep, the computer does not go into Sleep mode.

Cause

This issue may occur if one or more of the following conditions are true:

  • You are running Windows Vista and have not updated to Service Pack 1 or a later version.

  • The Basic Input/output System (BIOS) system that is installed on the computer reduces power to the port to which the input device is connected.
    Note You may be unable to use Bluetooth devices to resume operation from certain power management states (such as 'suspend' or 'hibernate'). In some low-power states, the wireless transceiver may be unable to receive information from the Bluetooth devices.

  • You are using a portable or notebook computer that does not allow resume by using a Bluetooth device. If you are having problems waking a laptop by using a Bluetooth device, see Method 3 first.

  • The Keyboard item in Control Panel is not configured to wake the computer when you press a key on the keyboard.

  • Your computer may have encountered a system problem.

  • The Sleep key on your keyboard is configured incorrectly.

Resolution

If pressing the Sleep key again does not resolve this, try each of the following methods in the order in which they are presented and determine whether the problem still exists before you try the next method. If you are using the original version of Vista and have not updated to the latest available Service Pack, updating to Service Pack 1 or a later version may resolve this problem.

  2. Click the Hardware tab, and then click Properties.

  3. Click the Change Settings button
    Note This step requires Administrator access

  4. Click the Power Management tab, and then verify that the Allow this device to wake the computer is enabled.

Note If your computer does not support Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI), the earlier steps may not be available. In this case, you have press the power button to wake the computer. If you cannot resume computer operation by using any of these methods, you may have experienced a system problem.
For information about how your system resumes operation, see the documentation that accompanied your computer or contact the computer manufacturer. For information about Microsoft Windows Power Management settings, see Microsoft Windows Help.
Note Many laptop manufactures will not allow a Bluetooth device to wake the computer from sleep mode because of the power consumption requirements to keep the Bluetooth radio activated (Bluetooth paging can consume up to 15% of the computer’s power). Therefore there are a couple of workarounds that you can use:

  • If you can open the lid of your laptop, use the embedded keyboard or pointing device or an external non-Bluetooth device to wake the computer.

  • If you cannot open the lid (for example, because it is in a docking station) or if you have it plugged into external power (that is, you are not using the battery), you can change the Power settings in Windows to not go into Sleep mode when plugged in.


Alternatively the Microsoft Bluetooth stack or your laptop’s proprietary Bluetooth stack may allow customization to allow wake by using Bluetooth devices.

Method 4: Examine the BIOS settings of your computer for power features that disable or reduce power to ports that are used for your keyboard or mouse

More Information

The ability to recover from sleep mode by pressing a key on the keyboard or by moving the mouse on a computer that supports ACPI is dependent on the computer's motherboard. This ability is disabled in older Intel motherboards, and the only way to wake the computer from sleep mode is to press the Power button.
With most newer motherboards, you can wake the computer by pressing the Power button, by pressing a key on the keyboard, or by moving the mouse.
ACPI support is necessary to take full advantage of the power management and Plug and Play features in Windows. If you are not sure whether your computer is ACPI-compliant, please see the printed documentation for your computer or motherboard, or contact the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.
