Hi

The problem seems to be with the Microsoft Remote. If I turn off under
device manager the Power Management to "Allow this device to wake up" for:
HID: Ehome devices(all 4) and Keyboard Ehome Keyboard, the standby mode works
fine, it shuts down all the fans, but because I set these options I only can
power the system back on with the mouse or keyboard. No other Power
Management for devices seen to correct the problem. At this point to a
problem is in the emhome drivers supplied by microsoft. I have also
confirmed this with another system "Intel P4 3.2 GHz w/DFI Motherboard and
the both system have the same results. I will let contact I have in
microsoft know about this issue.

Thanks,
Deephook
