After approximately 2- 5 minutes on standby, my computer
automatically wakes up. What can I do to stop this. I
do not get any error messages but it is quite annoying.
thanks in advance for your help.

Try leaving your mouse on a piece of foam and going on standby via the
keyboard. Some are very sensitive to vibrations, particularly an
optical mouse left on a hard surface.

My other guess would have to do with whether the computer is set to
awaken from standby when the phone rings, which you can check in your
control panel \ modem \ properties\ powermanagement setting.
 
try hibernating your computer instead of putting it on
standby. the slightest vibration can wake it back up a
lot of times
