Computer intermittently wakes itself up from sleep mode on its own!

My computer intermittently wakes itself up from sleep mode on its own. This is an intermittent issue I have noticed.

Sometimes after a few moments after being put to sleep my computer wakes up by itself, after that happens usually I can put it back to sleep and it will stay asleep but sometimes I have to do it 2 times before it stays asleep.

Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions as to why this could be happening or what I can do to remedy this??

Thanks!

Hello everyone!

Seem like the issue is finally resolved...

I did two things so now sure exactly which of the two actually resolved the problem:

1. Turned off the Wake On feature for the LAN and Magic Packet entries
2. Switched my power options from Performance to Balanced (recommended)

Once again, although I'm not a 100% sure which was the solution, I think it has to do with the Wake on features of the built in LAN..

Thanks for the help everyone!

In my case, after changing for more power savings I had some issues myself. I made the report as stated in this topic, and it helped me out greatly. USB devices were holding it back, so I turned the "selective suspend" off under advanced for USB. All fixed. The entire setup (monitor, speakers, pc) is only using 180watts at idle!!! Think I did damn well.
