USB mouse Power Management Option grayed out

Hi, I have a USB mouse that is light and I noticed that when my computer shuts him still turns mouse, I found a setting in the property mouse on "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power", but it is greyed out and untickable. I found a windows 8.1 patch but it does not work on windows 7 (for me anyway). How can I activate this option?

  • What is the link state Power Management under PCI Express power management Options list

    What is link State Power Management under PCI Express power management Options list.

    What is link State Power Management under PCI Express power management Options list.

    Hello

    The PCI Express Link State Power Management option is part of the PCI-E specification and is working with the State active power management (ASPM) in Windows 7.

    It is a complex subject, but can be simply described as follows.

    There are 2 levels of power management in PCI Express options.

    The difference between these 2 options are the energy savings compared to the latency (time to recover from sleep state).

    If you select the first option, moderate energy savings, energy savings are lower, but the time to recover from sleep state (latency) is much shorter.

    If you select Maximum energy savings, energy savings are more important, but the time to recover from sleep state (latency) is much longer.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you for using Windows 7

  • Bluetooth monitor - power option grayed out

    I just got a laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-163 and trying to set up bluetooth.

    It came with XP Home installed, but I formatted and installed xp professional.

    I had to install drivers manually and got most sorting

    There is always the network left of network controller in the Device Manager I have a feeling is the bluetooth because its nowhere else in Device Manager

    I have problems turning on bluetooth - I installed the bluetooth stack and bluetooth monitor

    Bluetooth monitor is in the taskbar - I right click on it and an option is a wireless link which does not seem to do anything. There is an option to power on and off, but the two are grayed out

    any ideas? I've rebooted etc.

    Thank you

    Hello

    A simple answer: you cannot use the Bluetooth because the Bluetooth device is not available on the Satellite A100-163.

  • "Delete partition" option grayed out in disk management

    When I went to the Windows disk management 7, I tried to delete the volume and the deleted volume then to 'free space '. For some reason, when I then tried to remove the volume 'free space', the option is grayed out.

    http://picpaste.com/pics/1c17250de67ed8d6f57ef85a2a33729f.1433982901.PNG

    How can I make the option available again?

    Well, you can not remove the space on a hard disk, you can delete the partition, but

    space still exist (raw)... However, in Win7, you can extend the partition

  • redirection policy also apply to windows 2000 option grayed out

    I am trying to redirect users images, music and video files to a different location by using Group Policy management. When I open... say music properties. I go to the settings tab.

  • Impossible to reconfigure RAID5, expand VD size option grayed out on mini H710

    H710 mini installed on a server R320.

    3 Sata drives in a RAID5, 1 VD group

    1 Sata Drive not configured

    All readers of the same make and model,

    I try to add the 4th disk and expand the VD, but the size option to expand VD is grayed out.

    Installing OMSA is not an option on the server.

    What I'm missing here?

    Thanks for the reply, but it looks like I'm the problem ;)

    It actually is a 2 step process to get this working.

    1 - Setup (f2)--> device--> management--> management VD h710 settings--> reconfigure VD--> selected Raid 5--> Select new drive--> click on apply.

    then, the screen returns to the previous menu

    2. ensure that Raid 5 is still selected, click on apply again

  • Options grayed out after that migration vSwitch0 vmk0 to distributed network switch

    I have a bunch of ESXi 6 guests, where I would like the default vSwitch0 to a vDS management interface. However, it seems that the management network gets screwed more or less of this operation

    First I tried to simply migrate the physical interface and vmkernel to vds = no chance (resets the form configuration time to hosts)

    Then I tried to connect a NIC seconday to the same switch, adding as a management console interface, make two interfaces marked as management interfaces. The uplink of vSwitch0 is replaced by the new interface and the vds is mapped to the original management interface. From this point, I can migrate vmk0 to the distributed switch and remove the extra card. All good, at least at first glance. The army continues to communicate with vCenter and so on. However, return to the console options to "Network adapters" and "VLANS (optional)" are grayed out. The only way I managed to get back them is again a reset to the default settings of the management network.

    After som test front and rear, it seems that these options disappear as soon as vm0 leaves vSwitch0?

    Any ideas how to solve this problem?

    The army continues to communicate with vCenter and so on. However, back to the console options for "Network adapters" and "VLANS (optional)" are grayed out. The only way I managed to get back them is again a reset to the default settings of the management network.

    I guess that's the expected behavior, because once your vmk0 has been migrated to vDS, now the vDS control plan which is with vCenter server will allow you to change these settings as network card and VLAN ID etc.

  • 11g Enterprise Manager Shutdown grayed out

    I use windows 2003 server and oracle 11g, signed in enterprise manager, but stop is grayed out.
    no idea why this is the case?

    I do not understand the sysdba/oracle connection. I mean that you sign in as the user SYS as sysdba user.

    When you connect as user sys (is the oracle password for this user), you specify the user name and password AS SYSDBA option. If the connection string would be something like

    sqlplus sys/password_for_user_sys as sysdba

  • Headphone issues and options grayed out reading preferences

    The basic problem is that when I play music via iTunes, if I plug my headphones, it covers only playback through the computer speakers, not headphones.
    If I closed iTunes, plug in the earphones, THEN restart iTunes and play music, it will come through the headphones, but if I unplug, it is paused and not restart, even if I plug the headphones insert it again.
    Although I can change speakers headphones by stopping iTunes and restarting, I'm often trailing long playlists, it is not practical to do so.
    Other advice, it seems that I have to change the "audio playback" setting using "Session of Windows Audio' 'Direct Sound', or something similar, HOWEVER, when I go in Edition > Preferences > reading, the box is grayed out, and I can't change it.

    Any advice on how I can do so I can change the option, or any other fixes for the problem of helmet? Thank you very much

    Have you found a solution? I've just updated to iTunes 12.5.1.21 and I have the same question, ' Edit > Preferences > reading > play Audio using the "gray

    Direct Sound is the vastly superior choice if you have several outputs such as speakers and headphones and now if have to stop iTunes whenever I output to the speaker.

  • "new folder" option grayed out

    I was organizing my files photo in year folders and subfolders of months on an external portable 1.5 TB harddrive. I've only used less than 1%, so I have a lot of memory still available. Suddenly my "new folder" option is grayed out. How can I get this working again? (The file is available, but I don't want this kind of file.)

    You format your drive Seagate for a Mac? It is delivered formatted for Windows and if you are wrong in the installation of the software on the drive, it will be read/write until the software stops, then you will be able to read the disc.

    Select the drive, then the get info (cmd - i). See if it says that the format is NTFS. If this is the case, it is formatted for Windows and OS X can only read the drive natively. You can install a third-party software to read and write, but it is apparently not well maintained and seems to fail to update to OS X.

    If this is the case, I would say you move the files to another drive and then format the drive as Mac OS extended (journaled), then move the files back.

  • Pavilion p6506f: System Recovery option grayed out when you use the recovery to factory default reset disk

    Dear experts,

    Please help me on what I am making a solution for about 4 hours now...

    Somehow my recovery partition is damaged, so I use the recovery disk that I created when I bought the computer.

    I used the disc to start the computer and after loading files and everything on the menu of Recovery Manager "System Recovery" is grayed out.  Note that I have not changed any hardware on the computer.

    Help, please!

    Thank you!

    Hello

    You did do the right thing. But you created a Win 7 recovery disk, not the game of HP recovery disks.

    You can switch to Win own 10.

    You will need the product key Microsoft of the COA sticker attached to the frame of your PC of 25 characters.

    Images of example COSTS:

    Do a clean install of win 10 If you do not know the product key of Windows 7 on the certificate of authenticity.

    Win 7 PC sometimes have problems updating to Win 10.

    I really think you should get support from HP Win 7 recovery. If the Win 10 upgrade fails you can always return Win 7 If you have a Win 7 HP recovery media.

    Your choice.

  • Elite x 2: Pen Input - Option grayed out on Windows 10

    I bought a new elite x 2 with Windows 10 Pro. The tablet includes a pen for direct entry. The pen works well for drawing and writing in OneNote, but the handwriting recognition does not seem to work.

    First of all (and especially), when I bring the on-screen keyboard and select entry options, the option for the Panel of handwriting recognition to enter text using the pen is "grayed out" and can not be selected. All other on-screen keyboard options work fine. Secondly, I think that there should be an option "convert to text" in OneNote to allow me to select the handwritten text and get OneNote to convert to writing. This option seems to be missing - I guess for the same reason that I can't select inking in Windows.

    It's frustrating because inking was one of the reasons why I chose this tablet. Can someone tell me if there is anything else I need to do, or what could be wrong?

    Hello TH270,

    I don't really know why the selection of pen Layout is grayed out.

    The only thing I could think is maybe to check the language pack that is installed.

    I use the English of the United States and his work on my X 2 spectrum that corresponds to your Elitepad.

    Reach:

    Settings/time & language/region & language/languages - add a language

    and see what the default is set to.

    If its already on English (United States), go to the options and see what keyboard is installed. It would be us QWERTY and not something else.

    My guess is that if another language is loaded, handwritting recognition may not available.

    Other than that, I don't know. I'm sorry.

    Add a language or keyboard - Windows help

    @WyreNut you have this problem on your X 2 Elite?
