How to disable the shutdown/hibernate charge technology in my Asus laptop?

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

 My Asus laptop with windows 7 has a very persistent sleep charge technology (it keeps the power on even after the computer shutdown). How can I disable this feature? I don't see anything related to that in the bios.

I have also tried setting the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power option in the USB Root Hubs' Properties in Device Manager and enabling USB selective suspend in power options - it didn't work.

Firstly, I couldn't understand clearly what you meant but I guess you mean when your computer is shutdown.
Naturally, computers cutoff power being sent to USB ports when it is shutdown or hibernated and in some cases, in sleep mode EXCEPT in certain computers with special features like the SLEEP CHARGE TECHNOLOGY which allows specified USB port(s) to be powered while in sleep mode, shutdown or hibernated.
The SLEEP CHARGE TECHNOLOGY can be configured in either the BIOS setting or in the computer manufacturer's settings software.
You should also try out those options or elucidate more.
