You might check bios settings. For servers, I configure them to auto-boot at power on and after any power failure (simulated by a power strip turn off). Desktops are normally configured to power down if they find they were on or off when a power fails.
It does sound like the power control is doing this. It is built into lots of mother boards these days. I doubt you can totally defeat it, but you could just 'turn it off' no using a power strip, leaving a small amount of power being used by the power control circuitry. If I wante to use a power strip, I would just live with it and not worry about it. Being on rural circuits, I do have all electronics I want to 'keep' on UPSes, not just surge protectors. A lightening strike took out several things and one of 3 UPSes in the house, but nothing plugged into any of the UPSes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
