What operating system are you using?
Win 8 and Win 10 will wake the PC for "maintenance" and not turn on the monitor.
When this happens can you wake the screen? If you can, After this happens wake the screen and open an elevated Command Prompt, by typing "CMD" in run then right click on it and select "run as administrator", in command prompt type in the following: powercfg lastwake , and hit enter. this will tell you what woke the PC last.

Windows 8. And I did what you said and yes, there was a "scheduled task which requested waking the computer".
Im in task scheduler but its hard to read. I dug around a bit and found one task running at midnight each night:
"SQMUpload..." by Microsoft. Last run at 1:30AM after I put the PC to sleep. "This task uploads Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) data for Portable Devices".
I'll disable this and see if it stops the computer from waking. Thanks.
