When I put my computer in stand-by mode it comes awake
all by its self. No one is even in the room, Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

Could be a couple of things....

A "wake on..." setting is enabled in the system BIOS. Most likely "wake on
ring".

A misbehaving driver. One or more of them could use updating. If you
recently updated some, you may need to rollback to a previous version.
