[QUOTE="TheBatfink, post: 978967, member: 52265"] I have had the issue for a while where it wouldn't sleep or when it did it would wake up 15 minutes later, sometimes later. Rarely did it stay asleep (I have a server which monitors uptime of the networked machines). I disabled this value and the first time it slept, it stayed there for over an hour :) so only one test so far but it looks promising. Will see when its left over night and how it works over the coming days. I also did some googling and came across this which details the same thing [URL='http://jack.ukleja.com/fix-for-windows-7-random-wake-from-sleep-problem/']here[/URL]. I'm also wondering why I never tried to test with the network cable unplugged and just concentrated on services running on the problem machine. My Intel NUC is also doing the whole sleep wake sleep wake thing sometimes too, think I'll see if that adapter has the setting but that's an intel nic I believe (but which has suddenly started behaving the last day or too which doesn't help finding the issue). I would like to try and get to the bottom of what was being sent that was waking the machine and where it was coming from though. I have a laptop which is usually off, a second PC which is also usually off, a MePo client and a WHS2011 server with lightsout installed (which has the uptime monitor). I'm wondering if that monitor was pinging the machine to see what it was doing and causing it to wake when asleep. But thanks again for the idea @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/chrisonline.55093/']chrisonline[/URL] really hope it works long term :) [/QUOTE]
