Hello all- trying to get some help on an annoying standby issue.
My new build (see below) will successfully go into and out of S3 standby and wake up appropriately for network access (remote desktop, shared folder access)
Here's the problem- when I boot up another computer in my home network my new build wakes up even though no network traffic has been requested. Also with one of my networked pcs on, my new build will constantly wake up (every 5 minutes or so)- again no network traffic has been requested. BTW my new rig has a shared folder for videos that the other networked pcs occasionally use- I have simple file sharing turned off
When the other computers are off my new rigs standby problems go away (this took forever to troubleshoot)!
I've tried putting my new build on a separate switch but same problem- I also noticed that the "wake up " signal is sent when the windows xp screen on the booting computer states- loading your settings
Anyone have a solution?- obviously I still want to be able to wake up the new computer with appropriate REQUESTED traffic- does windows automatically ping its shares ever so often?
thanks in advance
