why on earth, when my pc is put into hibernation mode, does the bloody thing turn back on again within a couple of seconds?

I wanted it to record some TV last night that didnt start till 10 to 1 in the morning, and in hibernation (according to the help and support thingy built in) you can do this. But the thing wouldnt stay off, so i couldnt.

Does anyone know if there is some kind of setting im missing, as i had a look in power options in control panel and there doesnt seem to be an option for anything like that.

Cheers in advance

 

Don't put it in hibernation, just turn the monitor off ?

 

not when i have it next to my bed and all you can hear is the psu fan whirring away

 

It could be wake on LAN (WOL)

Google how to turn that off on your network card...
