PC Turns On By Itself

kabal876 · Sep 24, 2014

Hello, there are random moments where I shut down my home-built PC and it just turns right back on. It shuts down completely then starts right back up again. What could be causing this?

various things eg restart on failure or the shutdown button has been reconfigured as restart , etc etc

Could be Wake-ON-LAN Enabled in your BIOS, a feature often used to be able to patch or build systems remotely. Check your BIOS NIC settings to see if this is the case.

also settings in the bios to wake on keyboard or mouse movements..

The mouse and keyboard movements were disabled by default, and while I do have wake on lan enabled, I haven't sent any such packets to my NIC.
