Hey guys,

we have a computer that won't stay turned off for more than 5-10 minutes. I'm going to try disabling the WOL, but just figured I would check for other suggestions.

Thanks!

Make sure that its not set to power on by moving the mouse in the bios - sometimes the mouse can move very slightly causing the machine to power up.:cool:

interesting, i've never even heard of that.... I'll check. I didn't see anything when I checked for the WOL setting, but I'll look again. Thanks.
