J JG Jan 20, 2004 #2 Hi Alex Your dad's network card has "Boot on LAN" enabled on his network card. (also known as "Wake on LAN") Basicaly, your dad's network card tells his PC to boot as soon as it recieves any information (link). To disable it: 1. Go into the CMOS (Press delete while the PC is booting) 2. Look under all the menu's for something about "wake on lan". Have fun.
