Keyboard and/or mouse won't wake my PC from sleep??

Hey all,

I've just installed a sexy new 512GB SSD in my machine as the main drive, and as a result, had to reinstall Windows.

After getting everything set up, I put the PC to sleep for the first time, and when I went to wake it a while later by hitting the space bar (something that's always worked in the past with everything the same except the new HD) nothing happened. I tried a few other keys with the same result, along with the mouse.

So I went into the device manager and checked things; 'allow this device to wake the computer' is enabled for both the keyboard and mouse, but when I check the usb root hubs, they've all got the option greyed out.
I checked in the UEFI (BIOS) and I can't find any option to change it there (and, like I mentioned, the only difference is the new HD, the BIOS settings weren't touched), and I'm about ready to lose my mind.
If it helps, I'm running an ASUS Crosshair V Formula Z motherboard.

Help??

Please?
