Hi,

I am interested in acquiring the Streamzap PC IR remote control to control my HTPC. The Streamzap website indicates that there is the capability to turn off, hibernate etc the PC, BUT (in general) is there a way to turn on - or get out of hibernate- a PC via a USB port? Or is there any way short of an IR controlled UPS to turn on a PC with an iR control? Obviously the USB IR receiver needs power to work and thus that implies in order for it to work the USB port must have power even when the computeris "off" ( I know there are different levels of "off"). Any thoughts or suggestion? My long term goal is to integrate HTPC with my logitech harmony remote.THNX
