opus not working right

**UM_Fan** · 04-03-2006, 09:28 PM

I did a quick look around and didn't find an answer.
My opus shut down and powers up find...The problem is when I shut down completely all my USB peripherals are still on.
My GPS which is a Rikaline GPS-6010 still has a green light
My scan converter is on
Logitech Vibration Feedback Cordless USB Rumblepad
And few other things...Keep in mind I'm not hibernating it's a complete shut down.
My concern is I'll wake up one morning and find a dead battery

Yeah, I think that information is important

Opus 150

I'm not 100% sure but I believe the 120 is the only model that has a 5v standby voltage shutdown, selectable by jumper. For example, in my system (Opus 120) I leave the jumper disconnected and 5v power is cut on shutdown.

With the 150 you'll have to come up with another way to kill power to the 5v. This thread is a discussion on the topic:

Plenty of info in that thread.

IMHO, that seems to be a BIOS setup issue more than anything else....

I thought I remember a thread a while ago about this "issue" and that there was a mod Opus could do to it so that it cut 5v standby power. Do some searching and on that and see if you can find anything, not sure if I bookmarked it or not.
