- kkielhofner 5y agoThanks for the reply! Certainly a step in the right direction but given the significance of the issue (and unknown response time from Intel) a warning should display whenever the vpro hardware is selected in the configurator. Because of this issue I have to carefully plan when to suspend my laptop -or- shut it down every time. At this point I’d also be happy to buy a new non-vpro replacement from you but I don’t seem to be able to.
- oneplane 5y agoYou used to be able to disable vPro features using on-board MEBx jumpers but I bet that has changed in the last 5 or so revisions of that feature. It used to be that you simply had an S3/4/5-Off setting that powered down the CSME and any vPro NICs. Some implementations did leave WoL on for Ethernet links.
- eu 5y agoIm in the same boat. Love the product but the battery in sleep mode is pretty bad :(
