Utilities Sleep and Charge 125 Enabling/Disabling USB Sleep and Charge This utility can be used to enable or disable the USB Sleep and Charge function. To enable this function, select Enable. To disable this function, toggle the Enable button to the Disabled position. You can also control whether charging takes place when the computer is running on battery power. To do so, select or de-select the Enable under Battery Mode check box in the utility. If you enable charging when the computer is running on battery power, you can specify that charging stops when battery power drops below a certain level. Use the slider at the bottom of the utility window (beneath the "Lower limit of remaining battery life" heading) to specify when charging should stop. For example, if you set the slider to 10%, charging will stop when 10% or less of the battery power remains. Power supply mode settings Your computer may provide two different charging modes, to support various types of USB devices. If your computer provides more than one charging mode, the charging mode you should select depends on the USB device you want to charge. For example, Auto Mode, which is the default mode, will charge a wide variety of digital audio players. If your device does not charge in Auto Mode, try using Alternate Mode. To select a different charging mode, use the Power supply mode drop-down list in the utility.

In those cases, disable USB Sleep and Charge in the utility and turn the computer on to charge the device, or use a different charging device.
