Re: WIN32: How to power-up a device?

Before going into Perl, would it make sense to change the power management policy to keep the internet interface turned on?

Any Northeastern US area jobs? I'm currently unemployed.

This is one fallback position. You can actually de-select "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" off of the Power Management tab of the device driver's properties. However, I'm hoping that I can find a way to avoid bothering the user with this. Well, ok, actually bothering me with providing the instructions to the user to do this. Hmmm, I wonder if there's an easy way to deselect this device driver property right from the perl script. Let me investgate a bit...	[reply]
