[QUOTE="2.0, post: 849215, member: 118263"] Well I just solved the Powerscheduler problem. :D I scratched my head quite a bit about what could be causing user input every minute and interrupting hibernation. It turns out the culprit was HTPCInfo TVServer Monitor. This handy little tray icon tells you what state your TV Server is in (Idle, tuning, recording, etc.) It has an option to start itself automatically with Windows. It also has an option to "Send activity to the TV Server" (For what purpose I know not). Last week, when Powerscheduler was shutting down properly, I had this send activity option disabled. However, when I restarted Windows on Saturday morning, HTPCInfo TVServer Monitor automatically reactivated its send activity function. This is what was interfering with Powerscheduler. HTPCInfo TVServer Monitor will always reactivate this function on a restart and prevent scheduled shutdown and there is no way to change that. So I guess we can blame Micropolis for this one... I deactivated HTPCInfo TVServer Monitor and now it shuts down properly as it did before. I also checked the logs and there were no more "User input detected" lines. Problem half solved. That leaves the other issue of the error message in the error log. I'm still getting that error, though now we know it is not related to the Powerscheduler problem. Any idea what that error means or what may be causing it? [/QUOTE]
