LCD still backlit if PC shutdown - solution

Postby lcd9999 » Fri Mar 25, 2016 1:59 pm

LCD still backlit if I shutdown PC. My PC has permanent power +5 V into all USB ports, even if PC is shutdown. In BIOS nothing to change it. I made small improvement today. I used 2x USB bracket this type:

and cut off one RED wire. Then I connect this into one free HDD Molex connector (RED wire) from power supply.

If is PC off, then +5 V to lcd panel off. If I power on PC, is panel powered too.

Is possible use 4x USB bracket and cut off all red wires and direct connect into +5 V Molex, for more USB accessories.
