Re: PC automatically switching its self on

Check your bios settings to make sure that the computer isn't powering up
when the phone rings (or various other "wake-up" events) Also see if there
is a setting that turns on your ocmputer at an arbitrary time.

If such a setting is enabled, you should be able to disable it.
