to the desktop

You will need to determine what is waking the PC. Document Indexing,
noisy mouse, malware?

thanks Bob, I've removed malware from my pc, still can't figure it out
though. I did just get a logitec mouse but it is not wireless and I've
installed the correct software with it so i don't think that is my problem.
As far as document indexing idk what that is. I've tried to research it but
am unsure what to do . If you have anything else that could help me I would
greatly appriciate it. ty

Open Task manager and leave it open, set to Sort by CPU. When PC returns
from Screen Saver the "top" program may be the culprit.
