is it awaking from sleep mode or a Hibernation?

It's related to a BIOS setting... With a USB keyboard/mouse you need to enable BIOS USB settings.

I checked my BIOS usb startup is disabled....

Nitesh Shah :

It's obvious that modern motherboards may have USB support enabled by default... because you need USB support to use the keyboard in the BIOS now that most keyboards are USB... and with PS2 keyboards you wouldn't need the setting.
