Hi all

Other than using the BIOS to disable wake on ring can it be done in Windows
XP?

Kind regards

Mick

Not normally - as it's a BIOS option and the OS isn't even on at the time
any changes made within windowows would have no effect on that. On the other
hand your BIOS vendor may have included a tool to make certain changes from
within the OS though I wouldn't trust them further than I can throw them.

Thanks for your help, normally I would do this via the BIOS, but am unable
to find the usual Wake on Ring/Wake on LAN etc. I normally find this
setting under "Power Management" but on this "WIN FAST" mobo it's not there.

Am I missing something or should I be looking elsewhere?

Thanks again for your help.

Kind Regards

Mick

NO! Wake up on Ring/LAN needs to be implemented in BIOS in order for it to
work.

It may also be under:

Advanced
Devices

sections.

Thanks, this problem occurs when the PC is on standby, is it therefore
possible to stop this from happening via windows, as I still cant find it in
the BIOS unless of course it is known by another name.

Kind Regards

Mick

The wake on ring is in the following location on my computer

In the BIOS

Select the Power menu
Select the Power Up Control
Enter
Here there are two modem power up settings. Both are disabled on my
computer.

Thanks everyone for your help.

I eventually found it in PCIPME and disabled it. This is a new one on me,
you learn something every day.

Thanks again

Mick
