Hi all,

I had a hard drive fail on my 6 year old machine and did a fresh install of Win 7 on a 250GB SSD.
I flashed my bios to the latest version which is from 2011 and installed all updates for Win 7. I also installed Logitech's latest software for my G15 keyboard and G9 mouse.

I'm having three problems I never had before, two of which I think are related.

1: My mobo has two network adapters, both used to work but now one doesn't only after a cold boot. Windows claims it doesn't have enough resources for it, but it's magically fixed during a reboot. Can reboot as many times as you want and it's fine but do a cold boot and it's got a problem. For now, I disabled it as I don't need both.

2: My keyboard and mouse no longer wake up the computer from S3 sleep. I made sure this was still enabled in the bios, and it is. I also tried turning off power saving on the three USB hubs in device manager, no change. Clicking on the properties of the mouse and keyboard do not have any power management options.

3: The Logitech software works fine until the computer goes to sleep. Once it goes to sleep my LCD on the keyboard says G15 and I can't get it to work until I restart or restart Logitech's software. I highly suspect this is related to problem #2.



Motherboard is an EVGA P55 from 2009. Processor is an I5 750. Video card is an EVGA GTX 460. 12GB G.Skill Ripjaws ram. Corsair TX750 PSU. 250GB Corsair SSD + WD green 1TB for music\photos. No OS files on the 1TB, I left that unhooked until Windows was installed.

Like I said, these problems didn't exist before the fresh install and bios \ software updates.

Latest BIOS is bad. I had same problems with network adaptor.
Umm.. I'll do some digging real quick to find the previous revision that was better.

Thanks for responding
That's awesome.  I had just flashed back to A72 a few days ago and it also fixed the problem with the keyboard and mouse not waking the machine up but I never re-enabled the 2nd network adapter.  I'll re-enable it when I get home tonight.
 
To fix the other issue with the keyboard software not loading after sleep I needed to find older Logitech software which was easier said than done.  Once I did that, all is well and the old girl is running faster than ever with the new SSD.
