Had to delete old messages in the (probably fruitless) hope that my
pristine gmail acct won't get spammed...

Anyway, yeah, I'm having the same problem, everything was working
great before SP1 but now my PC will not auto-sleep. If I manually put
it to sleep, everything is completely fine. But when it wakes up in
the wee hours to perform my nightly backup, it just doesn't go back to
sleep.

My motherboard is an ASUS P5N32-E SLI, using Nvidia 680i architecture
and the Intel 775 socket something something.

Hope someone finds a solution.
