Another "Windows 7 Wakes Itself" Issue.
Hello everyone.
I know there's a few people who have said before that Windows 7/Vista wakes itself and have asked for help on how to fix it. I've searched Google myself for answers. Alot of the time it's something simple such as making sure that the PC is allowed to sleep while sharing media.
In my case my PC keeps getting woken by my network adapter (found using powercfg -lastwake). I do want the ability to WOL so the network adapter is set to wake the PC, I've even checked the box to only allow it to wake with a magic packet. I've allowed it to sleep while sharing media also, but as soon as it goes to sleep it wakes back up.
I had exactly the same setup with Vista x64 and it always stayed sleeping, but Windows 7 continually wakes, I've even updated the network adapter driver.
Sorry if that's a bit too much to read. I hope someone can help me out.
Thanks
