Hi All,

Recently I've put together a PC and it works fine. However it randomly seems to turn itself on during the day every few days or so.

Any ideas what could cause this?
 
Check for any form of overheating and your PSU.

Temps seem to be fine when in Windows.
The PSU itself is new, Corsair CX750 or something.


Is this from standby, or are you using a sleep/hibernation mode?

If the latter fire up an administrative command prompt and type:

powercfg -lastwake <enter>

This is from completely being switched off (after a shutdown).


I've also noticed it randomly reboots then cycles on and off when it posts. It boots up fine after a while.
