Smile Keyboard stops working when left overnight

Hello! I'm having a problem with my keyboard on my Dell Inspiron 546s. It works fine all day but when I leave it over night nothing works at all on the keyboard until I restart it. Can anybody help? Thanks!

Re: Keyboard stops working when left overnight

If it is a USB keyboard, make sure ALL your internal hubs are set to NOT turn off to save power.

Re: Keyboard stops working when left overnight

Thanks for the help! The USB hubs were not set to sleep but I did find another sleep option in the advanced power options that was enabled. I disabled it and my keyboard now works. Thanks again!
