I noticed an interesting oddity this morning with my 7VIF4 motherboard.
With the power off, the status lights on my keyboard remain faintly lit
(Num Lock, Caps Lock, & Scroll Lock). The illumination around the network
connector also remains lit when I turn the power off. However, if I
disconnect the power chord, they all go out. Is this supposed to occur? Is
power supposed to 'trickle' even when the computer is switched off? It
seems very strange to me.

Thanks for any help....
