Yes, that bwould be the one. However, the ports are not disposed the same behind my A75M-ITX and the E350 counterpart. I'll take a picture tomorrww.

right on!

Well, no need to take a picture when there's plenty on the web

So, both USB ports on top of the red eSATA port works.

I can even start the PC with my RF Keyboard, or my mouse.

pyrospawn Wrote:Yes. I can indeed power on the htpc after performing shutdown from inside windows using the mediagate remote and its usb receiver. The usb port I used is the top USB 2.0 port in the rear (ASRock A75M-ITX FM1 MOBO). Looking at bluray pic on previous page, it would be the port above the red arrow.

yes Balinus and I have same mobo (A75M-ITX FM1). I was just pointing out to the port equivalent to mine on bluray's pic (Asrock E350). Sorry for the confusion. The I/O in the back is what you posted on last pic esko.

Does not work with the 5V ports on my ASRock H67MITX.

- eskro - 2011-11-29 04:55

oh ok, so i guess both USB2.0 ports work then,,,
Balinus uses bottom one and u use top one pyrospwan...

another thing,
any of u could somehow take a pic of the BIOS feature to enable?

its good to keep this as reference!
thanks!

I don't have anything to take nice screenshot of the bios handy. But there is a screenshot of the bios setup in the user manual on page 38. I have PS/2 Keyboard Power On ENABLE, and PCI Devices Power On ENABLE, which according to the manual allows to turn on the system from power-soft-off mode (S5) state)
