    Wake computer up using ONE key rather than two or more?


    Please note I'm not asking how to wake PC up with keyboard/mouse.

    I noticed on different PCs, it takes a different number of keypresses to wake the PC up. On mine, it takes at least twice on any key to wake it up.

    How do I force windows to recognize wake up just using any ONE key?

    If not a keyboard why do you use the word "Key" Well I don't use a Key. I wakeup my DELL Inspiron N7110 Laptop by pressing the Power Button. No key involved... One action. O! And log in... 2!

    I specifically want to use the keyboard, not power button.

    Because I want to wake it up with 1 keypress, not 2.
