System standby

Comment:

Hello! My system is set to go to standby after 15 min. of inactivity, which it does. Then it comes back on by it's self. I can't think of any events that have occured that would have caused this issue. Any ideas anyone? Thanks!

One possible cause I can think of is Wake on LAN.. Do you have this enabled in the BIOS? i_XpUser
