PC turned on by itself

Hi everyone,

 

Today I experienced a weird behavior. I wanted to shutdown but acidentally clicked restart, waited for it to restart and as soon as it did clicked shutdown without login in, it displayed a message and I went "shut down anyway".

 

Ok, when I returned home about an hour later the computer was on for my surprise (fans and network leds on) but had no display output... at this point I just held the power button for a hard shutdown and restarted back again, normally without issues. Tried to replicate the issue with no avail, anyone has a clue of what it could be? maybe a windows bug due trying to shutdown too fast?

Cant say I know what happened... but I have seen unexplainable "flukes" many times over the years. Sometimes something happens for ... well ... just because.
