Hi

Ive been playing around now with the remote mapping within the MP config for awhile to make the pc sleep/wakeup from the remote, the sleeppart were easily done but to wake it back up seems more of a problem, as from what ive read so far a USB device would need to be jumpered differently on the motherboard, but does this also apply to a firewire connection? i havent realy found anything about waking up using firedtv remote as far as ive looked. also all setting in bios looks ok and S3 suspend is activated. im just not sure on how to proceed now. thanks in advance.

    I had same problem: Antec Fusion goes into standby with remote but does not wake up with remote.

    The problem was:
    You have to change the cabling of the case! You have to remove the front part, connect the power connector with white-black wires (coming from power button) with the display on the opposite side (it has a two-pin connector with PWR and GRND). Connect the colour-wired (purple-black) power connector coming from display with the motherboard! Antec states that this is the standard config but I have seen 2 Antec Fusion cases till now and both of them were not so configured (the black-white power cable was not connected to the display)

    Plus:
    BIOS: enable S3 hibernate and wakeup allowed from USB device (I guess not necessary)
    configure power management in iMon software (what should happen on power button from remote)
    display must have power if PC shut down, there is a 3pin power cable, don´t forget to connect it

    excuse me, I thought you want to do this through the Antecs built-in IR Receiver (part of the Antec´s display you do not have). Forget my advice. As I understand you have a separate IR-Receiver of your TV-Card. I cannot help with that.
