ASUS P4P800 SE does not power down, at leats not for my ou..

I have a 8-socket outlet where 1 socket is the master having a threshold
of 15W. If the power consumption of the master socket is less than 15W,
the outlet will switch off all 8 sockets.
When I attach my new computer with a ASUS P4P800 SE motherboard to the
master socket, the outlet does not switch off all 8 sockets when I
shutdown/powerdown via Windows XP: my monitor goes into suspend mode and
my modem/router stays on. Apparently the power consumption of my
computer is still larger that 15W. Only when I push the on/off switch at
the back of my computer, the outlet switches off all my components on
the 8 sockets.

How can I fix this?

By the way, the outlet worked with my old computer with a different
motherboard and Win98SE by shutting down Win98SE. I also upgraded the
BIOS of my new motherboard to the latest version.

I'd love to find a powerbar like this in Canada (or even toss one together).

Any suggestions folks?

No, alas, the outlet has no power adjustment, it is fixed to 15W.
As I have a PS/2 mouse and keyboard, I do not need a USB waking
capability.
Also, I do not need a wakeup LAN.

Is it possible to switch off those waking capabilities?

Note: These are usually the default setting from the factory.

KBPWR - Set jumper to +5V
USBPW12 - Set jumper to +5V
USBPW34 - Set jumper to +5V
USBPW56 - Set jumper to +5V
USBPW78 - Set jumper to +5V

"Power On By PCI Device" [Disabled]

The onboard LAN chip could be powered by +5VSB, to support the
wakeup function. Maybe you could try disabling the Onboard LAN,
then attempt a shutdown and see if the power is reduced enough
to work.

"Onboard Lan" [Disabled]

While there are some transistors used on the motherboard
to control power flow (like the ones connected to the
fan headers), I don't know if that technique is used on
any of the motherboard chips or not. Some chips have a
disable pin, and many chip designs are filled with power
saving features, so it probably isn't necessary for Asus to
switch off the power flow to the chips using a pass
transistor.
