Does the iPod Nano charge from USB when the PC is OFF?

Let me ask you this.
You have a brand spanking new PC that is still in the box, so you hook up your iPod to one of it's USB ports while still unwrapped - you think it'll charge the iPod or not?

Although there is power to the motherboard when the PC is powered down, I don't believe the 5 volts is present at the USB ports.
Do yourself a favor BACKUP!

Sabertooth If you are trying to imply that I'm stupid, well, look in the mirror.
Hi ham30
Thank you for your reply This is exactly what I thought, but I have bought an MP3 player from EBay that indicates it's charging even when the PC is off. Since iPod Nano also charges from USB, I thought Nano users should know.

Not only does it talk - but it tries to bite too (sorry you feel PWNED).......hahaha
I indeed had doubts before, but your rebuttal totally obliterated whatever sentiments I might have had about your cognitive ability.
If you had a preconceived notion regarding your thread, all you had to do was post your observation so responders can catch your drift rather than mask it in a closed-ended inquiry.

I'll give it to you; the big mouth is definitely yours. About what you think of my abilities, I don't give a toss. Comparing your reply with ham30's is enough for anyone to make a fair judgement. You are in no position to tell anybody how to ask a question. If you don't like it don't reply to it.
P.S. Do us both a favour & from now on don't reply to my posts.

No big deal, I keep my friends close and enemies even closer & we can always agree to disagree.
BTW, the above is not an olive branch of any kind, if our paths do cross again, don't expect me not to tear you a new one........LOL
