My computer keeps waking from sleep

[Wufflez]

I've tried everthing, I check cmd each time it wakes up and it says nothing has woken it. I have it so schedules can't wake the computer either. It just suddenly turns itself on after about an hour or 30 minuts of being asleep.

Do you have a mobo with a dehumidifier function? My ASRock mobo has that and if I don't turn the function off in the UEFI then it "boots" back up about 30 seconds after putting it in sleep mode.

I have noticed that the same thing happens to my computer when I leave steam, Origin or Battlenet client open in the background. It might be that.

Also, any time you post in Troubleshooting, make sure that you include all your system specs so that we know what you're working with. We can't help you much if we don't know what parts you have. See: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/40334-read-before-asking-for-help/

EDIT: Also, make sure you always "Follow" your own posts so that you know every time when someone replies.

Do you have Wake on LAN enabled on your Ethernet controller (look in your Device Manager)?

Check your event log, it will list the reason that the computer resumes from sleep every time it does so.

I've already disabled my LAN from waking my computer. It still wakes

I rarely have these running, it's definitely not that in my case

I have a gigabyte z97x-gaming 3 mobo, it doesn't have a dehumidifier. What an odd function

I think I found it... My clock was being sync'd with an internet time server. I disabled that, will post again if it is not the solution

My computer is still waking, any ideas?

The main things that usually do this for me is Network being allowed to wake up the computer or the mouse. 

Those can be turned off in the Device Manager. 

Maybe it's a scheduled program that likes to wake up the computer when i'ts scheduled to update or scan or something?

I've had this with network adapters that are not connected waking the computer from sleep. I'd go through all network adapters and usb devices in device manager and check that nothing can wake it from sleep.
