Good suggestion. However, going to the power management section of my
network adapter (Realtek RTL8168B/8111B Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC
(NDIS 6.0)), I find the box unchecked which allows it to awaken system
from
sleep. I disabled the adapter completely, and still the system re-awakens
instantly after going to sleep. As a former MacOS person, I am wondering
whether Windows is around to serve its user, or the other way around!
(Okay, just a little venting; thanks for listening.) Could it be some
other
component of the computer is causing this issue?
