Wake on Lan - A7N266-VM
I am trying to get wake on lan working on my A7N266-VM motherboard. It has a
built in NVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Adapter and I am running Windows 2000 professional with all the latest updates etc. Bios version is rev 1004. I considered updating the bios but none of the more recent versions seemed to have any changes other than processor updates so I assumed it was not necessary. I have enabled on option in the bios called "Power Up On PCI Card". The explanation in the bios says this will enable the PC to power up from network or PCI modems. I have also enabled the option "Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby." in the "Power Management" tab of the Network Adapter Properties. When I shut the box down the network card is no longer powered up, so I put the PC into sleep mode and then send a "wake up" packet from my Linux box using ether-wake. No joy. I tried a PCI network card (SMC1211) but there is nowhere (that I could find) on the motherboard to plug in the WOL cable and it did not work either. In addition, and I don't know if this is related to my problems or not, but the "Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby." option in Win2k gets lost every time I reboot the PC. This happened with both of the network adaptors I tried. Any ideas would be appreciated. Chris |
