Can anyone get this remote to wake their pc from sleep? I can put the computer to sleep but not wake it up. Same Result on multiple pc's and OS's

This device is best used for your television, link your PC to your TV then use the remote to watch videos from the web. Use the escape button to escape full screen mode and see the pause and on screen etc.

Never. Sometimes I couldn't even get it to wake from screen saver. The IR is junk, sadly. Maybe the remote, too - I used my Harmony remote with it.

It seems to power down when powered down. The light goes off and the drives stop spinning. I'm not sure about sleep mode, my computer is either off or being used. Hope that helps.

It is designed to work with Media Center. And it can act as a pointer (mouse) so it can be used to turn off the computer (as you would with a mouse) but it cannot turn on a off computer. In my case, it can awake a sleep computer, but not a hibernating computer.

I turned mine off also, it is too annoying for an old guy like me. Look on page 30 of the instruction manual if you have one under "Changing the Display" and try the "no display" procedure. If you don't have the manual, it says to press the Display button repeatedly (on right side middle of the remote) with the system turned off until you have no display (power saving mode). Hope this helps!

Hi Bob- thanks for posting on here. I followed your instructions with my comcast remote and I am able to get power and volume down on the comcast remote but no volume up (super frustrating). Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks so much in advance for your help.

Scott, it's been about a year since I bought mine. I do remember it is a bit confusing to set. I don't know where my original instructions for setting it are. The last time I changed it I just started pressing buttons until I figured out what was happening. I work with computers as a career, so it wasn't too difficult for me. If I can try to do something to help you, let me know.

I didn't have to do anything to make it auto sleep. It just worked. Sorry, I wish I could help.

This device can wake a PC up from a sleep state as long as the PC has wake on USB capabilities. It cannot power on a PC from a fully powered off state.

My remote does not work either. I did read another comment by someone that their remote didn't work. I can't get my time and speed set either. Sorry I'm no help.

I've returned two of these because of the sleep mode issue and couldn't get any to wake using the manuals recommended wake option which is just by pressing any key. The sleep function varies it seems. the 1st went to sleep every 10-15 seconds. The 2nd went to sleep every 30-40 seconds.

I have not had this problem with mine, but did find that the remote doesn't always boot the unit. It has come on fine after pushing the top button on the back - or - simply by unplugging and plugging back in. Sorry I could not be of more help.

I never use sleep mode on my PC's I think Windows don't handle it well, I have always had issues with allowing my Pc's going to sleep. So I have never used it on this motherboard or have I heard anyone who has, hope this helps...

Hi Kathy Sleep mode are you speaking about your computer? Keyboard has no sleep mode. If this your computer that's a sleep just click your mouse or any key on the board. It should wake up.

It does work with sleep mode, in a way. It'll go to sleep but once your computer goes to sleep it ejects your drive. So when you wake up your system you'll have a warning about improperly ejecting your drive.

my sharkk mouse goes to sleep it seems after a while of sitting. I wake mine up by scrolling the wheel. it wakes right up. moving it or clicking buttons will not wake it up.
