_man1c_ Posted June 20, 2006 hey i was just wondering why my graphics card stays on while in Standbye-Mode? its not a big deal not to have Standbye, but i wouldnt mind having the mode work properly anyways. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReelFiles Posted June 20, 2006 Do you mean it is still spinning the fan in standby? I would research if the PSU has issues with standby, if it does there should be plenty of results on google. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ReelFiles Posted June 20, 2006 I had a similar experience on my wife's PC, but all the fans and lights used to stay on. A new PSU solved it for me, but I would look into it before taking any drastic measures, and buying new parts or RMA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_man1c_ Posted June 20, 2006 yea. this is a brand new psu as well. shouldnt really do it with this psu. maybe something in my control-panel pwr section is not correct. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReelFiles Posted June 20, 2006 Did you try setting your power saving settings manually. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_man1c_ Posted June 20, 2006 nah not yet. but it did it the first day i got my board stable. now it wont shut it off. well itll shut-off the system but the gpu still runs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReelFiles Posted June 20, 2006 Do you have another PSU to try, if tweaking power management doesn't solve it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_man1c_ Posted June 20, 2006 nope. well i have another one, but it wont run the DFI board. hence why the new psu. its no big deal if it doesnt work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReelFiles Posted June 20, 2006 I have a feeling it's the power management settings, give that a shot when you get a chance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
