No joy. All settings are as you say. Legacy USB is no help either.
Thanks for taking the time to think about this. It's beginning to look
more
and more like a "feature".

I'd be interested to hear what Asus' tech support says. I'm due for
a system upgrade pretty soon and was considering the P6T, but this
issue would be a deal breaker for me.



The post to asus tech support was sent earlier today. I'll post back here
later to tell you what they say. Might take a week.
Also- I just reset the bios power setting to S3 only. I'm going to see if
the setting works after a cold boot tomorrow.

No response from Asus. No way that I know of to stop the behavior. It is a
feature.
I would check to see if this is a common "feature" on other motherboard
manufacturers boards if you are shopping. But you won't see this listed on
any spec sheet. You will need to call and ask a human (good luck!).
Maybe we are being herded towards USB keyboards & mice the same way we are
being herded away from floppy disk drives. It would free up some prime real
estate in the motherboard layout!
