Hi, I'm running Vista Business SP1 for the first time on a desktop and I set up the Power Options according to KB929658 (The Hibernate option is not available in Windows Vista). Hibernate is working fine, but the computer later wakes up seemingly without any action on my part. Now, I have the same settings on two laptops both running Windows Vista Ultimate SP1. Is there a difference in that respect between Business and Ultimate or is there something else that may be set one way on my Business configuration and another on my Ultimate configurations that I'm not aware of? Thanks |

your first step is to discover why the computer woke up. in a command prompt type powercfg -lastwake the report will tell you what caused the last wakeup and you can go from there to turn that source off.

The most likely reason is a LAN card that does not have "wake-on-LAN" deselected. Look at the LAN card properties. -- Jay (remove dashes for legal email address) |
