Some motherboards wake-up on interrupts (some old MSI do, I don't know for recent ones), i.e. they can power-up or resume from sleep/suspend mode. Some can only power-up from Wake-on-LAN/Wake-on-Modem/... (Asus). What would be the best is to find a mobo which powers up and resumes on interrupt. I don't know which ones do that :( If someone knows... Second thing is that the IR receiver should wake-up the mobo only on a specific signal (you don't want your computer to start when you power-on your TV...), meaning that there should be a way to analyze the received signal even when the computer is off... The only solution I see is to use a micro-controller that analyzes the IR signal, and sends a signal to the computer only if it was the "Freevo Wake-Up" signal.
