Ever since the now-famous BIOS fix for the "resume from S3 standby" problem, my system has been absolutely fine. Until recently...
A few days ago, I noticed that it is spontaneously waking from standby every two hours for 2 minutes. I suspected some MCE issues, but have found no specific culprit in the task scheduler. While in (S3) standby, the system will spontaneously wake up every two hours and then put itself back to sleep after a couple of minutes. The system event logs show the system waking up exactly 2 hours after I put it into standby. It posts a resource publication, a couple of TCPIP events, then says the system has resumed from sleep. Then there is a User PNP event, a Browser event, another resource publication event, then it shows the system entering sleep mode again. The whole thing takes exactly 2 minutes (to the second). Two hours later, it does the same thing (as long as I didn't wake it up manually in that interval).
I cannot find anything in the task scheduler that allows the system to be woken up. And I certainly DO NOT want the system to wake up from standby unless I press the keyboard!
Does anyone know how I can track down whatever is causing this to happen???
