Default Strange problem;PC wakes up automatically after hibernation.
I am facing a strange problem.

My PC started acting crazy a few days ago. It would automatically turn on if I shutdown. I use BIOS RTC to turn my PC on at 2 AM, but it also started behaving crazy, sometimes RTC would turn the PC on at 2AM and sometimes it won't. I cleared the BIOS and even updated it, but to no avail.
Then one fine day there was no problem , all the problems got fixed automatically.

Then again 2 days ago a new problem.

Every time I hibernate my PC, it just wakes up automatically after 3-4 minutes (even some times after 10-15 minutes, no fixed timing). doesn't happen if I shutdown.

I have checked the APM, even disabled it, but still noting. I changed the OS but still nothing. So I figured it out that it is, most probably, a BIOS problem of some kind.

Help

Maybe your CMOS battery is dead...
Is your system & BIOS page shows same timing?
Does your setting in BIOS changes every time you enter into it?
If yes.... definitely your CMOS battery is dead.... if no.... Then your BIOS may be corrupted.... use older & stable version of BIOS...

Do yo really think that when I have done all the above things including BIOS update, I wouldn't have checked if battery is OK or not ?
And as far as updating BIOS is concerned, I have updated both the old and new before and both are stable. The problem only in started last month. And this time I updated the BIOS after the problem started not before .

Ok I apologize for it...
Then problem might be with electricity fluctuation, do you use stabilizer or U.P.S?

Be serious man;
you should post joke too in technical fashion .

My PC has evolved and has generated AI of its own, and it plans to take over my place and torture me as I am doing it now.
