Switching On PC w/ Remote

Post by adelphia »

Is there any way to turn on the PC using a GX Typhoon using the remote. Previous hardware (iMon - excuse the swearing) came supplied with a lead to connect it to the power switch connector and I was wondering if GX can do the same? It seems silly to have to manually turn on the PC when everything else is remotely controlled. Maybe I can set the BIOS to wake from USB? I notice the remote receiver flashes even when the PC is off so it's obviously getting signals.

I look forward to your reply.

It should support waking up from sleep/hibernation using the remote, from a complete 'off' mode is not supported though.

Thanks for the reply. The issue I have is that I'm on Win 7 64 bit and as you know the display doesn't revive from a sleep/hibernate mode. I'm seriously think about redoing my HTPC with XP as I'm having all kinds of issues with 7.
