| [Vista] Disable RTC wake
I have the annoying problem that throughout the day my computer randomly wakes from sleep. Regardless of why this is a problem, is there any way to prevent this?
I go to my eventvwr and see that it was woken from sleep by the RTC. I have gone through and disabled both my Ethernet controllers from wakeing my computer.
I have checked the task schedulers (including hidden tasks) for anything that could be considered to wake the computer from sleep (all were unchecked anyways).
My BIOS has wake on RTC disabled.
I have used the "powerconfig" command to check to see which devices can bring the computer out of sleep but none show.
Any other options for preventing the RTC from waking the computer? Thanks alot.

| Edit: I found how to disable automatic updates. We'll see if my computer still comes out of sleep anymore.
