For some unknown reason, my computer sometimes decides to randomly wake itself out of sleep mode. Most of the time, it's while I'm asleep, but it occasionally happens when I'm able to catch it in the act. In fact, just earlier, I put it in sleep mode, then a little less than an hour later, I suddenly noticed all of my fans lighting up. I went over, did my keyboard sleep command(Fn+F1), and, not 30 seconds later, it turned right back on!

 

I went into Command Prompt and did the -lastwake command, and here's what it spat out:

So... what does this mean? I was expecting it to tell me something about maintenance(well, it did, but only when I did the -waketimers command), but it looks like it thinks I pushed the power button. Would redoing my wiring do anything? I've been needing to, anyway.

It seems like your power button is waking up the PC. Try unplugging and plugging back in the connector for the Power Button on the motherboard.

I have this issue at home and i no longer can pout my pc to sleep. ES file explorer on our android phones seem to send WOL signals to all computers in our house. Also even when no android devices are connected it seems to wake up by itself, maybe that will help you a bit
