My computer likes to switch itself on?

[slipd]

Guys,

I’ve had my upgraded computer up and running now for a couple of days and everything is mostly good, but one thing that really stands out is that it likes to switch itself on when if feels like it

Since Friday it’s done it three times I think? It had turned itself on for me today when I got home…

Any ideas? I was thinking it might be a motherboard setting, but most of the settings are still default – I have a Gigabyte P35-DS3R and an Enermax Liberty PSU btw.

Cheers,

SW.

Okay, thanks for the replies

I had a good look in the bios and in my mobo manual and the does have a wake on LAN feature, but it was already disabled?

Under Power Management though there were a couple of possibilities that were enabled, that I’ve now disabled.

PME Event Wake UP and Power on By Ring.

I’m going to give that a go overnight…

If it still happens when you plug out the PC then it is obviously haunted. Call up John Cusack and ask him to spend a night in your bedroom and then video tape him going insane, through in Samuel L. Jackson for 5 minutes in order to get his name on the credits and then fob it off as a decent movie.

Saw it last night actually - thought it was great

I turn off the things I said I would try and it seems (touch wood) to have worked? It was left off all night and day and when I got home tonight it was still off
