Thats a coincidence this is a gigabyte board ..... Anyway since i disabled 'PME wake on' in BIOS alls been quite on the Western front... (Bet its quitely switching itself on at home as i type, cheeky little blighter....)

Anyway if does it again pulling the plug out of the wall is the next option and if it still does it then I've discovered a permanantly renewable energy supply and solved most of the world's energy/environmental problems :)
