Hello,

I have an issue with my computer turning itself on randomly when its on sleep. It's also set to sleep in 20 minutes, but for some reason it doesn't go back to sleep sometimes either.

My sleep wake timers are disabled. I checked powercfg -lastwake and it simply says
"Wake History Count - 1; Wake Source Count - 0"

Any help would be appreciated!

You need to access the bios; how that is done on an XPS8500 I do not know.
Usually, you enter del or f2 while powering on to get the bios screen.
