clashcityrocker Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 My PC is waking up every morning, and I think it started when I installed DVBViewer. I only use DVBViewer every couple of weeks to view/record the RTL F1, so having the PC wake up every morning is not particularly good for my electric bills. Is there some way to stop it?

blasgl Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 You can look for the origin of the wake with the powercfg command and in the windows event log. Link to comment

Many thanks, it looks like it might not be DVBViewer as being the culprit... C:\Users\ClashcityRocker>powercfg -LASTWAKE Wake History Count - 1 Wake History [0] Wake Source Count - 1 Wake Source [0] Type: Wake Timer Owner: [PROCESS] \Device\HarddiskVolume2\Windows\System32\services.exe Owner Supplied Reason: Windows will execute '\Microsoft\Windows\Media Center \mcupdate_scheduled' scheduled task that requested waking the computer.
