Wakeup Hang Issue

For the most part I have everything working but if I enable the wakeup function, my PC will no longer wakeup via front panel switch or Infra commands. As soon as I disable the Wakeup flag, everything returns to normal! The unit is a couple of months old and it did work initially although I have not used the functionality much due to working on NetRemote and Girder stuff. My machine suddenly developed the problem and I found that by disconnecting the USB-UIRT, everything worked again and I have now narrowed it down to the wakeup state flag.

Soft / Hardware revisions are:


Plugin: 2.6.9 Dated 04/06/04
API:2.6.93
Firmware: 5.9 Dated 03/26/04

Motherboard (ASUS) has power enabled to the USB in Standby.

Has the USB-UIRT failed?

With the kind assistance of Darren Karp the problem was tracked down to a conflict with NetRemote .

Please be aware that if you install NetRemote and accept the full installation including the NRIR Server, it will conflict with the Girder Plugin.

The problem is easily solved by editing the registry to stop the NRIR server from being initialised (started). An alternative solution is to remove NetRemote and re-install without including the NRIR Server.

Beamer,

That is interesting. Did you by chance try running *only* NRIRServer and *not* Girder to see if it was indeed a conflict and not simply a problem with NRIRServer?

No Jon but I may try it at some point and I will let you know. I'm still trying to track down an issue that crops up infrequently whereby the USB-UIRT still causes the computer to hang in sleep mode. The problem I have is that it happens very very infrequently now. Since the computer is dedicated to home entertainment I do not have lots of drivers loaded which does at least reduce the scope ;) Since it now so infrequent I may well accept the problem and move on with life :) but it sure would be nice to get on top of the cause.
