Thanks Nial,

On the HP Z220 ( Windows 7 ) I have been performing Start -> Restart ... seems to cycle the power off and restart .... this HP laptop ( Windows 7 ) says Start -> Restart will "close all programs , shutdown Windwos and restart windows .... That really isn't sufficient unless the Windows driver enumerates the PCI again.

Older systems restarted POST keeping power on.

since I work with the PCIe driver engineer.

Thanks for your help.

Bob.
