I am running Windows 8.1 on a ASUS M5A97 r2.0 motherboard. When idle, the system uses about 70 watts. When asleep, it only uses 5 watts, but remote desktop obviously does not work in this state.
I have created my own power plan. I have the disks set to turn off after 20 minutes and Processor power mgmt, minimum processor state set to 1%. Display is set to turn off after 10 minutes.
What BIOS settings (already set to power-saver mode in the EZ menu) in the advanced menu and what settings in Windows 8.1 can I use to still have remote desktop accessible but use less electricity? I want to have RDP access, but it may be a few hours after I have physically left my system.
