How do I prevent this and make it only wake when I tell it to?[/color] In a lot of BIOS-ses it is possible to wake-up your computer by "Wake-up on timer" It is even possible to "wake -up on ring" (by telephone and "Wake-up on LAN" (network activity) So check your B?IOS settings. The manual of your laptop, deesk or motherboard will show you how. -- Wim Hekken ;-) |
