I have had this new computer (a Packard Bell) for 7 months, and this problem has been going on from the start. It does not really bug me that much but I have never had a new computer before and don't know how big a problem should be before you take it back while still under warranty.

Does it happen when your phone rings? There is a setting which will cause the computer to wake up whan that happens .

Does it happen at a fixed time . There is a way to set that up .

Talk to your retailer about this . I don't thing it's really a warranty fault, but they might ask you bring it in so they can change the settings so it won't happen . If you are confident about using the BIOS setup, post here again, and someone will give the specific instructions .
