How do I TURN OFF power management???

My computer still keeps going to sleep and the only way to wake it up is to hit the reset button. I tried enabling the keyboard-wake-up to wake it up, but then it started rebooting itself spontaneously every 15 minutes -- without any warning from Windows. It doesn't matter whether I select S1/POS or S3/STR mode -- it does the same thing every time. I don't want S1 or S3 power management. I want to TURN OFF POWER MANAGEMENT COMPLETELY! I only want Windows to turn off the monitor. The BIOS should do nothing!
How do I accomplish this??????????
BIOS v1.3
NEO2-LS
Quickboot - disabled
IDE Busmaster - disabled
ATA mode - native
ATA config - P-ATA only
Performance mode - slow
dynamic overclocking - disabled
S.M.A.R.T. for hd enabled
Power Supply - @Power EP43057 (430W)
HD Western Digital UATA WD800JB
video card - MSI FX5600TD128
512MB Elixir 400 MHz DDR Ram
Lite-On DVDROM
Pentium 4 2.6GHz HT 800MHz

This is strange - my understanding is you would usually use the Power button to wake the suspended PC...
Could what you are experiencing be more of a shutdown or instability?
Is it due to BIOS setting or Windows? Here are some possibilities
1. What is your selected Power Scheme? Are your options for Turn off hard disks, System standby & System hibernates set to Never?
2. These BIOS settings work fine for me ...
ACPI Standby State : Auto
Power Management/APM : Enabled
Suspend Time Out : Disabled
Set Monitor Events
FDC/LPT/COM Ports : Monitor
Primary Master IDE : Monitor
Primary Slave IDE : Ignore
Secondary Master IDE : Ignore
Secondary Slave IDE : Ignore
Set WakeUp Events
Resume on PME : Disabled
Resume on RTC Alarm : Disabled
Keyboard PowerOn Function : Disabled
Mouse PowerOn Function : Disabled
3. Does your keyboard have any of those quick buttons for Power / Sleep / Wake ? Could any of them be stuck? (Mine has these in a most inconvenient place - between Delete/End/PgDn and arrow keys, so I sometimes accidentally pressed them)

How do I turn off color management in my Epson Stylus Photo R1900

How do I turn off color management in my Epson Stylus Photo R1900 printer? I am using the laetest Epson driver, I am using Adobe Photoshop CS5 and I'm using OSX 10.5.8.
Thanks
Joe

I have researched the matter a lot and I,
along with many others, still have problems with this complicated
subject.
Color management is as simple in theory as Honoring a Source Profile and CONVERTING it to a Target Profile (monitor or printer) for Proofing.
But yes, we work at the mercy of the rocket scientists who try to dumb an extremely complicated process down so regular folks (like me) can make it work — trouble is I think their approach needs a bit more distilling and common sense sometimes...but it is very doable once you put in the time to figure it out, just follow the CHAIN in your workflow if you're still having problems.
If you want a "simple button" try staying in sRGB and printing out of Apple Preview app using OEM standard papers matched to your printer and OEM ink set.

How do I turn off color management in Photoshop 5?

There are three selections, only the first two clickable, in PS5 under Color Management in the Print dialouge:
Printer Manages Colors
Photoshop Manages Color
Separations (grayed out/unclickable)
Under Printer Manages Colors - there is no option to turn off color management for my Canon 9500 Mark ii
Under Photoshop Manages Color - there is no option to choose "No Color Management"
You can chose "No Color Management" in PS3, but not PS5? What happened to this option?
How is it possible to create a profile from a print of color swatches if I can not turn off color management?
(I am running Mac OS 10.6.4)
PS> this is the second time I'm contacting Adobe. First was by phone but I couldn't understand the message left on my voice mail after the phone technician had to ask for help from upper management - the english was so bad. I'm hoping by the written word I'll be able to understand. Please help.

How do you turn off power saving mode on a Officejet 6000

I have 5 Officejet 6000 printer contected by using the ethernet port. They print fine when not in power saving mode. When they go into power saving mode and a print job is sent to them, they do not print. You have to power off and on the printer for the job to print. I need to turn off the power saving mode on these printers. Computers sending print jobs are XP and Window 7.

I am not aware of a way to turn that feature off completely since it does not have a front panel.
However, I suspect largely that the issue is with DHCP IP (automatic) settings. Printers in general, with some routers, have issues with DHCP and standby where they no longer communicate using DHCP information.
I recommend setting static IP addresses for any printer on a network as it prevents most network issues with printers from occuring.
Print a network configuration page by holding the network button for 3 seconds and then releasing it. A printout should be printed with the printers IP address.
Once that is done, enter that IP address into the browser on a computer as if you were going to a site. Once that is entered, go to that site and the printer status page should be loaded.
There should be a Network option at the top. Select that option.
On this page, somewhere on the left, there should be an IPv4 option in a wired section. Select this and it will give the option for automatic or manual IP setup.
Select Manual IP setup. Enter The IP address and subnet mask from the printout. You can enter the gateway and the DNS servers, but they aren't really used since this printer does not have any web functions.
Click apply and you should get a success message.
At this point, the printer should have a static IP address and the issue of it not responding after entering standby should no longer be present.
PrintDoc's post has similar steps for a wireless version of the same printer. The only step that would really be different is choosing Wired instead of Wireless on the setup page.

I have tried to turn it off, but the box in firefox settings is shaded and won't allow me to turn password manager off, i know i can choose "never for this site" in the settings but with just about every site you go to now requires you to sign in it is really getting on my nerves. if this can't be resolved i may reluctantly have to change browser.

Satellite A660 How can i turn off the lighting of the power button?

Hello, I recently bought a new Toshiba A660-1FL.
However bothers me is the lighting of the multimedia keys, if I work in the dark.
In Bios I could turn off the led illumination, but the power on/off button is still lighting,that distracts me when i am working.
This notebook has two power LED, so the power on lighting is in my opinion, unnecessary.
My question is: How can i turn off the lighting of the power button?

Here you can see the LED with the same function in front of you: http://s3.imgimg.de/uploads/t009aae62jpg.jpg
Yes in fact, the difference is color, design, but also location and brightness of the LED.
For me, this LED is too bright and it is distracting in the dark, as you can see here: http://s3.imgimg.de/uploads/leddf570760jpg.jpg
I was today at a local electronics store, and saw that Toshiba has the brightest Power LED on A660, but why it must be placed under the LCD and not in the front as in my old notebook Toshiba A210.
I also had the idea with a tape, but it would look ugly, and it must be removable without residue.
P.S. Also the fingerprints on the glossy keyboard do not look nice.

Hi,
Power Button Lockout is displayed.
The monitor's Power Button Lockout function is enabled.
Press and hold the Power button for 10 seconds to unlock the Power button function.
If the above doesn't work then try a monitor reset. Unplug the monitor’s power cord and hold down the monitor’s power button for 30-60 seconds. Plug the monitor back in and power it up.

HT201150 How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?

How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?
With the position of the power button on the Retina MacBooks, any mistake turns off the screen in the middle of a presentation or any activity using a projector or big screen — a huge waste of time to wake up the display, enter password, have the projector sync back, watch audience disconnecting from what was being discussed, etc.
This is very annoying, and seems to add to the increasing collection of options Apple decided to make by itself instead of allowing the user to choose.
Come on Apple guys, I'm using my Mac because I want options and lots of preferences to tweak to my needs.
If I needed the lobotomized version I'd be using my iPad!
Any way (official or hack) to change this button back to its proper funcionality?
Thanks!

Not what you want, but you can get the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by holding the power button

How can I turn off base64 email encoding in iPlanet Process Manager?

Email sent out from a workflow running in the Process
Manager seems to be base64 encoded. How can I turn
off the encoding?

No worries. Typically you can rename a machine by just changing the name System Preferences -> Sharing. But there is also a command line option to adjust the name, and if you don't use the command line option, the server freaks out and will alert you about the change forever. ie - for servers, you need to use the command I describe below.
The command is called changeip and can be run from command line in Terminal.app. It is for manually chaning the ip address and or name of a machine. It basically has 4 parameters: old ip address, new ip address, old machine name, new machine name.
Basically the command looks like this:
sudo changeip OLDIPADDRESS NEWIPADDRESS OLDNAME NEWNAME
If any value is being kept the same, just repeat the identical information as both the old and new value.
Example 1: Changing the IP address and host name. This would update the machine's ip address to be 192.168.1.2 and its name would be update to my_new_name.
sudo changeip 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 my_old_name my_new_name
Example 2: Keeping the IP address the same but updating the name. This would update the machine's name to my_new_name but would keep the same ip address.
sudo changeip 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.1 my_old_name my_new_name
Most likely you're just wanting to update the name, in which case you should follow the second example. If you run this, be sure to reboot the machine afterwards and test to make sure that any enabled services are running properly.
