Hi,
I added a new keyboard called an eclipse to my emachine. When I put the computer into standby mode and go to turn it back on... it won't do it. Instead I have to push the tower button and then it says "NO VGA SIGNAL". The computer turns on... but am wondering why keyboard won't do it?

Thanks for Any Advise,
Mysy :)

Have you tried rebooting the machine since you installed the keyboard?

Does the keyboard come with an installation disc

No need for installation disks keyboards don't need 'em, they only come with them for features like media controls, fingerprint readers, scroll wheels...
Simple solution:

Go to: control panel[classic view]>keyboard>hardware

Double click on your keyboard (in the list), now go to the last tab (power options or something) and make sure the box "allow this device to bring my computer out of standby" is checked
