I've recently taken to hibernating my Win 7 desktop instead of leaving it on all day and I'm finding that it's starting itself up for no reason. It definitely hibernates okay, but will randomly turn itself back on (sometimes while I'm in the room) RE: Windows 7 Un-hibernating by MeEtc on 11-01-2010 at 03:05 PM I use the ybrid sleep option in win 7 as well and does the same thing. It turns on but doesn't power on fully, as the monitors don't turn on. Stays on for 2-3 mins and turns off again. My best guess is something to do with scheduled tasks but I can't say for sure. RE: Windows 7 Un-hibernating by Chris4 on 11-01-2010 at 04:15 PM I'm having the same problem. Mine happens at the same time every day (7a.m. ) so I thought it'd probably be due to scheduled tasks. I deleted some of them which thought might be causing it, but I've been using Shut Down since, so not sure if it's fixed or not. RE: Windows 7 Un-hibernating by foaly on 11-01-2010 at 10:00 PM
Often this kind of behaviour is caused because devices like your NIC are allowed to wake up your PC, so when it's time to renew your IP for example it will wake up your PC to do so. RE: Windows 7 Un-hibernating by NoWhereMan on 11-02-2010 at 09:36 PM the scheduled tasks idea is not so wrong; I'm aware of a Media Center related task which is allowed to wake the laptop up at 2 o' clock (IIRC); I used to have this problem as well, i just disabled that task RE: Windows 7 Un-hibernating by MeEtc on 11-03-2010 at 01:16 AM Hm, I do have media center running, maybe that's when its updating the listings for the tuner. RE: Windows 7 Un-hibernating by djdannyp on 11-05-2010 at 09:33 AM Yeah, I noticed Media Centre doing something too, so I've disabled the automatic updates in the settings and now and it seems to be keeping itself off again |
