Assuming that you've checked the settings on your network card (right-click My Network Places, select properties, right-click your network card, select properties, Configure, Power Management and make sure you have "Only allow management stations to bring the computer out of standby" CHECKED) and that all is in order there, I would then check the Control Panel-Scheduled Tasks and see if there are any entries with the "Settings->Power Management->Wake the computer to run this task" attribute set. Failing that, I think that some windows management software (e.g. Windows Live OneCare) will wake the computer to perform maintenance tasks too.
I've you've eliminated all those as potential wake-er-uppers, then you may have hardware that just won't suspend properly. I've certainly had motherboards that won't do this. If your system is fairly new, I suggest contacting the manufacturer or the tech support of the motherboard manufacturer if your system is home-built. Will you system "stay down" when it's in hibernation? The good news for you is that the Boom will reliably wake your system from hibernation or from "off" 10 minutes prior to an alarm with no special intervention on your (or SrvrPowerCtrl's) part. This is a very nice feature that's been built into the Boom's firmware. I'm hoping that this will make it's way into the SBC soon too. -- gharris999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521
