Sure, it charges when the machine is asleep, but what do I have to do to get it to charge when I'm using the notebook...? This seems crazy...

It should charge while the computer is on...

It doesn't. It charges when it's off, hibernating, or asleep - but as soon as I log on it shuts down the charging. Really annoying.

There should be a setting for 'always on USB', I'm guessing in BIOS or in Power Manager.

Does anything else charge? My iPod will only charge if I turn on the computer, log in, plug it in, and then put it in standby. Of course a T400 doesn't have full always-on-USB support, (just on AC) but that's the only device I have to do that with. Anything else like my phone I can just plug it in and it starts charging.

It's in the power manager and it was checked...
