Ok so i go to turn my computer off as im getting ready for bed. Network cable is pluagged in, and i leave my room for 5 mintues. No one else is home. When i come back from the kitchen, my PC is turned on!!! I didnt touch it, so what caused this?

Any ideas would be very helpful.

Is your computer completely turning off when you leave the room, or is it just rebooting. You should watch your computer while it's shutting down to make sure it doesn't just reboot.

If it doesn't ever completely shut down, check your BIOS APCI, or power saving features. There might be something in there that causes it to just reboot instead of power off.
