XP Wakes from hibernation

[Marc]

Hi,

I have googled and I can't seem to find anyone else with this problem.
My XP Home Edition machine will wake its self from hibernation after
about 5 or 10 minutes.

At first I thought it was my wireless intelimouse explorer, having
checked its power management options, its set not to allow the mouse to
wake the PC.
There are no scheduled tasks either, the only other hardware attached is
my keyboard and PDA Cradle, which have been on other PCs and not caused
problems.

Anyone got any suggestions? At the moment I have essentially lost the
hibernate facility, which is a real shame!

Forgot to add, I do have SP2!

Check your power up options in the computer bios. You will find 2 or 3
things there that can start your computer if they are selected.

Also check your keyboard and network adapter (magic packet?) settings for
power on options in device manager. You should be able to solve this easily.

In the BIOS it's all disabled. Everything is set to "never" !
