    pc keeps waking up


    my pc keeps waking up from sleep and hiberation after about 10 seconds ive tried looking in power options and see nothing that could be preventing it too sleep/hibernate

    its the same setup i have with my previous version of windows 7 but never had this problem..
    ive got xbox360 usb wireless dongle and wireless reciever for keyboard and mouse what operate from the same wireless reciever. It has usb and standard blue plug for keyboard coming from it .. i should also ad that the led on that always stays on even when shutdown

    can anyone help its really frustrating me

    Here's one thing to check:

    In device manager, network adapters, for each adapter, check properties, power management tab and make sure everything there is unchecked.

    If that doesn't fix it, you could try making sure USB selective suspend is turned off by going into power options, change power options, advanced options/settings/USB, disable selective suspend.

    Also try disabling hybrid sleep.

    Go to Device Manager, and open the properties for "Network Adapters". In the Power Management tab, make sure that the box that says "Allow this device to wake the computer" is unchecked.
