Hi hows it going.. I have two computers networked in the
house internet sharing and when I turn the main computer
on the other computer also turns on Automatically. How can
I stop this from happening.

Cheers

Go into the BIOS setup on the other computer and disable "Wake on LAN"
or whatever setting tells it to start up when there's activity on the
network.
