Windows 7 - My laptop wakes immediately after I put it to Sleep mode |

My laptop wakes immediately after I put it to Sleep mode It's been like this since I installed Windows 7.
No device is wake armed except for the keyboard but I sure don't press anything (I'd have noticed and wouldn't be here).
When I put it to Sleep it sleeps for a second and then wakes up. If I try again, it may sleep without problems but suddenly after a while it wakes up again.
I used -lastwake and -devicequery wake_armed, "unarmed" everything and now it's like this ...
I don't know what's this fixed feature but I don't press ANYTHING. Any suggestions are welcome.
PS: The laptop is Asus x51lr. | My System Specs | | OS Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (Build 7601 SP1) CPU AMD Phenom II X2 555 @ X4 B55 (3,2Ghz, 2MB L2/6MB L3 Cache) Motherboard ASUS M4A785TD-V Evo Memory 4GB (2x2GB) Corsair DDR3, 1333Mhz Graphics Card ASUS ENGTX560, DirectCU, 1GD5 Sound Card 8-Channel HD Audio Monitor(s) Displays Philips 226CL2SB Screen Resolution 1920x1080p PSU Corsair TX650 v2 Hard Drives 500GB Seagate, SATA2, 7200rpm, 16MB/s Internet Speed 80mbps for $11 a month! |

This might be a 3rd party that is set to update itself in automatic mode, so it triggers when it wants.
Can be also Windows Media Center, but hopefully there's a fix for that: HERE
That might Temporarily or check again your Power Plan Settings in the Control Panel.

No triggers in Media Center. What should I check in Power Options exactly? Strange, but I put it to sleep and when I picked it up after 30-40mins, it woke up even before I had the chance to open it. | My System Specs | | OS Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (Build 7601 SP1) CPU AMD Phenom II X2 555 @ X4 B55 (3,2Ghz, 2MB L2/6MB L3 Cache) Motherboard ASUS M4A785TD-V Evo Memory 4GB (2x2GB) Corsair DDR3, 1333Mhz Graphics Card ASUS ENGTX560, DirectCU, 1GD5 Sound Card 8-Channel HD Audio Monitor(s) Displays Philips 226CL2SB Screen Resolution 1920x1080p PSU Corsair TX650 v2 Hard Drives 500GB Seagate, SATA2, 7200rpm, 16MB/s Internet Speed 80mbps for $11 a month! |

Have alook at this section: Tutorials - Windows 7 Forums[2]=Power%20Management
Go in "Power Management" section. Those tutorials might help you. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Under Construction [mid-2012] - I'm building a brand new mid-tower (half way done!) OS Windows 7 Professional SP1 - x64 |

Thanks a lot guys. I will have to try after a week (it's my father's laptop, and he travels). But I will read everything tomorrow. I hope it will work.
As for the display driver -- there is only one (I know) for that GPU (and I am using the one for Vista) -- ATI Radeon X1100. | My System Specs | | OS Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (Build 7601 SP1) CPU AMD Phenom II X2 555 @ X4 B55 (3,2Ghz, 2MB L2/6MB L3 Cache) Motherboard ASUS M4A785TD-V Evo Memory 4GB (2x2GB) Corsair DDR3, 1333Mhz Graphics Card ASUS ENGTX560, DirectCU, 1GD5 Sound Card 8-Channel HD Audio Monitor(s) Displays Philips 226CL2SB Screen Resolution 1920x1080p PSU Corsair TX650 v2 Hard Drives 500GB Seagate, SATA2, 7200rpm, 16MB/s Internet Speed 80mbps for $11 a month! |

My laptop keeps waking up and it is still because of that Fixed Feature Power Button, which I found is listed in Device Manager, in System Devices as ACPI Fixed Feature Power Button. It is the button I use to turn on my notebook, but I don't press it at all and it wakes up the machine; how is that possible? If it were because of the button, the laptop would be not only waking up but also turning on when it's completely off.
How can I fix this? Has anyone experienced something similar o_O? All my drivers are for Vista because there aren't any for Windows 7. | My System Specs | | OS Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (Build 7601 SP1) CPU AMD Phenom II X2 555 @ X4 B55 (3,2Ghz, 2MB L2/6MB L3 Cache) Motherboard ASUS M4A785TD-V Evo Memory 4GB (2x2GB) Corsair DDR3, 1333Mhz Graphics Card ASUS ENGTX560, DirectCU, 1GD5 Sound Card 8-Channel HD Audio Monitor(s) Displays Philips 226CL2SB Screen Resolution 1920x1080p PSU Corsair TX650 v2 Hard Drives 500GB Seagate, SATA2, 7200rpm, 16MB/s Internet Speed 80mbps for $11 a month!
