K8T Neo FIS2R: mouse light remains on after switch off

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.msi-microstar (More info?)

Hi folks,

I have a K8T Neo FIS2R (version 1.0) motherboard, initially with version
1.4 BIOS. After flashing to the latest 1.7, my optical mouse light stays
on after I switch off. If I pull the power plug, it goes out of course,
but it doesn't come back on when I plug it back in.

It is not a problem, but is certainly weird. Does anyone else get this?

Thanks for the reply. I have a PS2/USB adapter. As I want to use the
mouse in DOS (DriveImage etc.) I would normally leave this as it is.

MSI tell me that the light remains on because of the WakeUp facility,
but I have switched this completely off in Bios.
