PC WAKES UP FOR NO REASON

TexMin

Greetings, so if I put my PC to sleep or to hibernate(I use hibernate because it doesn't waste power) it always wakes up when I turn the light on in my room, sometimes when  I just walk in or when I turn the light on in another room. I have no idea to why this is happening and it's pretty annoying because I put the PC to hibernate just because I want to get back where I started and not waste power. This light thingy completely ruins the power saving thing and I don't know how to fix it. Any ideas?

This might sound like a stupid idea but.

If you physically move the whole thing to a different room, does it still do that?

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

So, after some testing I realised that it's not my house power or the lights.. It's the stupid keyboard, I have no idea why but when I disconnect my keyboard before my PC goes to sleep or hibernate. It will not wake up no matter what, only will it wake up when I click my mouse as intended. So why the hell does the keyboard do that?

Fixed it in the Control Panel keyboard settings, just set the "Allow this device to wake the computer" box to false...
