I have this motherboard, running WinXP Pro and I have a problem with Stand
By - the system goes to Stand By normally, but I can get back from Stand By
only by pressing power button on the case, not with the keyboard or mouse.
Does anybody know what the problem could be and how to solve it?
 
Vedran,

I have a P4P800-E Deluxe board. It has a jumper to allow the keyboard to
wake up the system. It's a three pin jumper KBPWR. On my board, it's in
the "back corner," next to the external keyboard and mouse connectors. It's
on page 2-22 of the manual.

Also, check out the BIOS settings under Power>APM Configuration. You can
set it up so you power on the system by simply pressing the space bar on the
keyboard. There are other choices as well. See page 4-28 of manual
(assuming it's the same as P4P800-E Dlx).

Go to the keyboard applet in control panel. Look into properities=>
power management. There may be an option to allow keyboard to wake system.
