Thank you. The powercfg -lastwake command is not working as you described. The following is the result of running it every time the laptop woke up. The first one was a spontaneous wake the rest were by opening the display, NOT a BUTTON!
Thanks. Gábor Quote:

Hello Gábor, and welcome to Seven Forums.
"Power Button" may just be a general term used for whatever action "opening the display" you did to wake the computer. You might also check the items listed in this tutorial to see if it may help determine what woke up your computer as well. Power Options and Sleep Mode Problems - Vista Forums |

Hello Brink,
Thank you for the quick reply. And thank you for the welcome as well. I followed your tutorial, and after checking everything the only setting that was different was the: PCI Express -> Link State Power Management -> Off For me it was "On". I made the change and so far (about a week) it seems that it works: the laptop did not wake on its own. The "opening the display" just meant that I opened the screen/lid/display of my laptop up. Which should not happen actually, since I set the action for "When I close the lid" as "Do nothing". On all the other laptops I worked with this setting allowed me to also open the laptop without it turning on, but this is a bit off topic. Thanks again and now that the world did not come to an end (May 21 was supposed to be the end of the world, later it was rescheduled to be October 21 and May 21 was to be the date of "Rapture") I wish you have a good day!

So what exactly does "Wake Source Count - 0" tell us? Because something is waking my computer up, but all I see is...
Wake History Count - 1 Wake History [0] Wake Source Count - 0 This helped me fix a classic wake on Ethernet problem before, but now I'm not sure. |

Hello Pixel Eater,
That indicates it doesn't have a wake source and a reason why. If you haven't already, give OPTION TWO a try to see if Event Viewer may have a log of what woke the computer up. Hope this helps for now. ![]() |

This has been a great help in determining what is waking my computer every hour. Thanks

Hello ColFrogfoot, and welcome to Seven Forums.
In addition, check your wake source log to see if it may reveal a culprit. ![]() Wake Source - Read Event Viewer Log |
