My Toshiba Satellite C75D-B7202 will not maintain power to the USB ports when sleeping or shut off.
I like to charge my Kindle Fire from the USB ports; I usually do this when I am not using either the computer or the tablet. (I know it's slow, but it is convenient otherwise). This used to work fine; I could charge the tablet when the computer was sleeping or even shut off completely, even when the computer was on battery power.
However, something has changed. The computer routinely shuts off USB power when it goes to sleep. Likewise, there is no power to the USB ports when the computer is shut down or in hibernation mode.
I have disabled the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" option, and I have also disabled the selective suspend setting for the USB.
I have no idea what has gone wrong, but it is driving me crazy. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
