My computer has a mind of it's own!

[ShizZy]

It just turns on randomly, especially when I have other computers on on the same network. It's really creepy actually. Any ideas of what could be causing this (besides a ghost of course ). I did build the computer, and it seems to run perfectly fine. Powerswitch works fine as well, when it's me who's using it of course. It really isn't that often though, only turns itself on a few times a week.

Random pic for the hell of it...





GAHH.. just turned itself on again while I was typing this
I'm unplugging it and going to bed lmao

Wake on LAN?

if it turns on while unplugged you should be really worried , but as martin said must be the "wake on lan" option on the bios.

My PC used to come on sometimes in the old apartment if I used the fluorescent light that was connected to the same circuit/breaker. Or possibly as mentioned, some sort of Wake on LAN action going on?

Yep Wake on lan sounds like it, I remember this computer doing it too, shit the girlfriend up a bit when I wasn't here I told her how to fix it though, so she didn't have to physically unplug it everytime.

My computer used to come on all by itself after I pushed the little button on the front. But your problem is probably wake on lan.

You guys are all wrong, it's actually me h4x0r1n9 his c0mpj00t4r and st34l1ng his megahurtz!!1

Can't offer any help besides the one given by the above posters, but I just gotta say that this a very, very cool looking case.

Nice case, my neighbor has the black one. Its either wake on LAN, or a problem like I had, your power button shorting out the power headers on your motherboard.

Could be a fun loving ghost too
