Hello,
when i try to look for power management bat for mouse in windows 7 i can not find it is not there (device manager /mice and another pointing devices/properties )
 
Two little tick boxes: Allow this device to wake the computer, and Allow the computer to turn this device off to save power.

Power Management should appear as a separate tab if you look at the mouse properties in Device Manager. If not, try updating the mouse drivers.

I have the same problem! There is no power management tab anywhere even though I am logged in as Administrator. I cannot enable the mouse or keyboard to wake my computer from sleep. Please help!
 

I use that tab to keep the mouse or keyboard from waking up a computer when it is sleeping :)

Is this a wireless mouse and are you trying to save batteries. Most wireless mice manage power without help(they just sleep after an idle time).
